In my case occurred just after telling usb-creator to format a newly created partition.

Occurs trying to display an icon for a potential CD source. The bug is a hassle because it happens every few seconds.

Amelioration: insert the CD at the last moment before using usb-creator (or maybe use an image or .iso file?)

Looks like line 315 in /usr/share/pyshared/frontends.py is intended to match line 487.

A patch is attached to do this but it maybe easier for a dev to just copy line 487 to 315.

I just opened the program, did not do anything, popped up that the app has crashed.

This bug was fixed in the package usb-creator - 0.2.10

---------------
usb-creator (0.2.10) karmic; urgency=low

  [ Cody A.W. Somerville ]
  * usbcreator/install.py:
    - Do not copy /syslinux/syslinux.cfg to root of disk, no longer needed.
    - Look at all files ending in .cfg under the syslinux directory when
      updating configuration files based on the options selected in usb-creator.
    - Strip tabs when parsing iso/syslinx config files to correctly identify
      commands in a syslinux config file that indents lines.

  [ Evan Dandrea ]
  * Small fixes to Cody's changes to the mangle_syslinux function:
    - Don't assume / is the path separator.
    - Add command line entries to the front, to avoid them being carried over
      to the installed system.
    - Write all lines, not just modified ones.
  * Properly set the icons in the source treeview. Thanks John S.
    Gruber (LP: #436469).
  * Handle the device no longer existing in fs_size (LP: #439001).
  * Update translations from Launchpad.

  [ Roderick B. Greening ]
  * Fix issues with UTF.8 (unicode) strings being cast to str
    (LP: #440719).
    - Updated KDE Front-end
