11 - Game Freezes when Configuring PopupMessage - Reproducable

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Interface
2. AddOns
3. Prat
4. Extra Stuff
5. PopUpMessage

Clicking on the PopupMessage control object freezes game.

Also occurs with at the command line initiated configuration interface:

Also got a guildie to reproduce this on his Windows XP machine.

Expected Output: Popup Message configuration menu
Actual: Game Freezes - I also get the apple spinning wheel of death whenever I hover my mouse over the game.

Well, I cant say that I understand the problem still. But i have removed the code which causes it for now. Basically, the Ace3 config menu and the chatframes are related in some way that creates a loop. If you mouse over subnodes in the ace options dialog trees you will see the chat tabs popping up. The problem seems related somehow.

OK I just completely removed Prat, deleted all the Prat saved variables, installed Beta 5 (r47) and I am still getting the same issue where it freezes/locks up on the popup message menu item.
Is there anything I can look for or additional information I might provide that would be helpful?

Hmmm.
Well, as I said I am using Release Prat-3.0-Beta-4 (r43) which I downloaded from Curse. I got the revision number I provided directly from the changelog in the prat directory in my addons folder. ...and yes, the Libraries are enabled in the addons pane.
Is there any other info I can provide?

Honestly it sounds like you are running an old version. These errors were fixed some time ago. Is Prat-3.0_Libraries enabled?

That's what I meant when I said WTF\SavedVariables (there's no saved variable files in the root of WTF, obviously). My mistake.

Nope. It's still happening for me unfortunately.
I deleted my saved variables (in WTF\Saved Variables and WTF\Server\CharName\Saved Variables) and it's still locking/freezing up. It also froze when I tried using the copy button in the chat frame.
Release Prat-3.0-Beta-4 (r43)

Make sure to delete your saved variables.
