It seems that problem in in Swing itself, I found existing bugs with nearly the same stack trace. Can't do anything more without reproducible steps information. Please reopen with requested info if you are able to reproduce, thanks. Related JDK bugs are 6420603 and 6341628.

I tried to find some way to reproduce it: it seems related to a folder containing hidden files/folders (like when we have a .svn folder). On my end happens (quite always) when opening the project chooser with a folder containing .svn folder (in my case), then going up one level and then expanding again the tree to see the files in the original opened folder. Hope this can help to debug this issue.
I'll try to reproduce - bad thing is that it's probably Swing/JDK bug - and I don't know about any workaround now.
All reports come from 6.1, no from newer builds, probably fixed. Please reopen if reproducible in recent releases.
