Just wanted to know if this was a bug in Lion?

When i empty the trash (sometimes not always) it says x amount of files remaining it gets down to 0 but then start going up in - numbers!

E.G Told me there was 700 files to delete it now says -1,231 and it going up too :eek:

Is this a bug? (See Image)

OSX lion 10.7 clean install too

Thanks
Rob

I have the same problem, I have a 1tb WD external hard drive hooked up with firewire 800 and when I delete extra time machine backups and empty the trash it does this exact same thing to me. Any ideas?
