Hi there,

we need some more information to help out.
What is your configuration?
Could you gently paste the output of the crash report?
Did you look if there are errors on dmesg?

dmesg | grep nm-applet

Have you tried to launch nm-applet manually and record the output to
see what happen?
You can try to track down the error via terminal:

killall nm-applet (if not crashed yet)
script nm-applet.log
nm-applet &

leave the terminal window open and when (if) the applet crash type

exit

now you will find a nm-applet.log on your home. Don't use a command like

nm-applet | tee nm-applet.log

because it will not record the output.
Did you look if there is something on session log (I doubt)?

leafpad ~/.xsession-errors

Let us know.
