OS X users: Repair Permissions should be run regularly.
Go to Applications>Utilities>Disk Utility. Select your disk and click on Repair Permissions.
Earlier OSs: Rebuilding the desktop is a good maintenance tip for all users. Many recommend this monthly, plus doing it after every install of new software. Re-start your Mac. While it is loading, hold down the Option and Command (Apple) keys simultaneously until you see the Rebuild prompt. Tell it OK and go get a cuppa coffee. Helps prevent crashes and out-of-memory messages.
Also useful:
--run Disk First Aid after a crash
--go to System Folder>Preferences and remove the Finder Preferences file, then restart
