I wonder if all distros ship KDE4 with Dolphin as the default file manager. If it is so, it would be a good idea to drop it in favor of Konqueror for the upcoming 4.3.0-final release. In its "3rd" mayor update KDE should come with a reliable file manager.

As much as I like the concept of Dolphin, it is unusable in its present state. Once its bigger problems are addressed and you can actually copy/move files around without it crashing, copying the files with old names or just taking forever to perform the action, it may regain its place as the "default" file manager.

You are in the wrong forum. Please go and report your specific bugs to the dolphin developers.

Just wondering...how do you make Dolphin crash? I'm not saying it's perfect but I've been using it and KDE 4 as a whole since 4.0.3 and I've never had Dolphin crash on me.

If you have specific bugs in Dolphin, please report them in bugs.kde.org. This is not the place for reporting crashes. Konqueror uses Dolphin for file managing, so it will not replace it. Certainly not for 4.3, which has been in freeze for a long time not.
