We've had a couple reports of Flock crashing at startup. Our investigations lead us to believe this is caused by a corrupted index file that supports the search history feature in the upper right of the browser. To resolve this issue please remove the "lucene" folder. Unfortunately the history of all the web pages you have visited will be lost. The lucene folder is located inside your configuration information folder called Profile. The profile is stored on your hard drive in a profile folder. The profile folder has a weird name -- a string of eight characters followed by ".default"; for example, "942ur3pf.default". Here's where to find it:

Mac OS X: The profile folder is in a folder named "Flock," and you'll find it on this path:
(your home folder)>Library>Application Support>Flock

Linux: ~/.flock/browser/

Windows Vista: C:\Users\Yourloginprofile\AppData\Roaming\Flock\Browser\Profile
2000 and XP:C:\Documents and Settings\Application Data\Flock\Browser\

This issue should be solved in Flock 2.5 - we highly recommend that you upgrade to avoid profile corruption in the future
