Datastage designer freezes

I am running datastage designer 6.0.1.5 under windows XP SP2 (version 5.1).
When I open a job sequence and double click on a job activity the program freezes and I have to use Windows task manager to end the task.

The same happens when I right click the job activity and select "properties".

I have no problem with other type of activities, e.g. E-mail activity.

Can anybody help?

Thank you
