Help SMS keeps crashing and deleting messages!

I love my Desire... except for one thing:
When sending, receiving, reading SMS messages it often crashes with a force close. This seems to be totally random but happens every few days.
I've even tried keeping my inbox fairly empty but it still happens.

Whats worse is I cant reboot when this happens. I just get "shutting down" but nothing happens even if I leave it for an hour or more. I have to take the battery out.

When I shut down, remove the battery or whatever I do, after the crash, all my messages are gone!

Is this a common bug in Android 2.1 or is it T-Mobile?

The only app I've got that does anything with text messages is Phonalyzr. I use this to keep track of how many texts I've sent.
 
I'm having the same issue with my recently purchased MyTouch 4G...I don't know why it keeps doing it, but it crashes. Luckily, I use SMS backup and restore pretty frequently to save my texts, but this is really annoying to have to keep restoring all of my messages!
