I think you may have pegged it with the external drive. I don't know  
what the deal is, but it happens occasionally to me too. I've only  
tried a couple times, but turning off the power to the external drive  
for a bit (generally not something you want to do) freed up all the  
applications and everything went back to working normally, except for  
whatever operation was trying to access that drive at the time failed.

Actually, now that I think about it, I think it only happened when I  
was using Roxio Toast or Popcorn and it resulted in a failed burn.  
Were you using either of those?
