Title: Re: Finder error
I don’t think you’ve given us enough information....
tell application "Finder"
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
end tell
This script runs fine on my mac. (Although it would be better to move the open location command outside the finder tell.
But, this is not opening a “Search window”. Instead it displays an applescript dialog, then uses the text from that dialog to form a url, and opens that url in the default browser.
I do not get either the error message you’re reporting, or the odd looking dialog in your post.

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 <http://discussions.apple.com/> *** 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
