Finder error

I'm getting the following error in script editor when trying to run simple applescripts that bring up a search window for various tasks: 

error "Finder got an error: An error of type -30581 has occurred." number -30581

Looking at the Console message logs I see this:

1/4/10 2:35:10 PM AppleScript Editor284 *** WARNING: Method selectedRowEnumerator in class NSOutlineView is deprecated. It will be removed in a future release and should no longer be used.

Although I'm not quite sure if this is even related to the error message I'm receiving. 

The scripts compile just fine and a finder window actually does pop up when running the script, however, the finder window's search box is a garbled image. I've enclosed a screen shot of what I'm experiencing...

Here's one of the scripts in question:

set search to text returned of (display dialog "Enter Youtube Search" default answer "" buttons {"Search", "Cancel"} default button 1)

open location "http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=" & search
