System Pref's crash

Whenever I try to run the "network" preference pane, system preferences unexpectedly quits. I can open all other preference panes. I have attempted to repair the volume that osx is running on (10.4.11) by starting up from my restore CD, but disk utility tells me my volume is fine. I have repaired permissions. I have run all the unix maintenance scripts using onyx. I have restarted, and done a cold start. Still.. nothing has fixed my problem! I didn't install any new software prior to this problem occurring. Has anyone had a problem with system preference panes similar to this?

thanks
 
Well try deleting the System Preferences plist file (/HardDrive/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist . Also you could delete the plist /HardDrive/Users/Library/com.apple.NetworkUtility.plist .

This might help. Just remember how the network is setup before you delete the Network preferences.
 
Make another user account, then test it. If it still doesn't work, then do an Archive & Install.
