Menu Bar causing crashes when clicked. won't display drop down then crash

[tmh144429]

Hello. I could really use someone's expertise on a problem I have.

All my programs work, my system seems to be running fine...UNTIL I try to utilize the menu bar. Then I get the rainbow ball and the program crashes. (Even in the finder when nothing else is open.)

I basically cannot drop ANY menu down. Have I deleted a system file somehow?

Any thoughts/solutions are much appreciated.
