Which Visual Studio Plugins have caused you more pain? Killed your IDE?

I recently had to reinstall VS 2008 as it kept crashing (I suspect due to some plugin). I was just wondering if there are any "Use at your own risk" visual studio plugins. Has anyone seen a dialog box popup asking for error details called JIRA when using Visual Studio?? My IDE started crashing once I started getting those dialogs.

This is not to create a hate list but a precautionary list of plugins that can screw up your unsaved work.

Powercommands caused VS2008 to crash when I loaded XAML files. I blogged about it here. There is a fix and it is a handy little plugin

I've seen that happen with Resharper from JetBrains. Usually a restart of the IDE takes care of it. Its been happening less in later version.
