Any ideas? You've been more than helpful so far, figured you might know...
What does it output in the console after you try to reboot?

Does it say something like this in the console before the error occurs?
Code:
Create temporary directory "/var/folders/zz...
If so, you locked more files than you should have while applying the xpchelper fix. You need only lock /var/folder/xx(this is the other folder than zz)/t**********(should be the only folder within this folder)/C/com.apple.xpchelper.cache. To fix this you should unlock /var/folders/zz so Lion can write those caches.

EDIT: Oh yeah and if that's the problem and you did lock the folder then just do this:
Code:
sudo su
chflags nouchg /private/var/folders/zz

hey what's this?

I did:
- locked permission for xpchelper cache so all apps work fine (thanks Jeaton2012)
- deleted zz folder so copy paste works fine (thanks bronzovkas)

but that messages still showed on console after few minutes.

Do this:
Code:
sudo su
chmod -x /System/Library/CoreServices/ReportCrash
chflags uchg /System/Library/CoreServices/ReportCrash
Then open Activity Monitor, in the top right, next to filter, there will be a drop down. Click show all processes. Then find ReportCrash and quit it.

EDIT: Oh yeah and if that's the problem and you did lock the folder then just do this:
Code:
sudo su
chflags nouchg /private/var/folders/zz
I don't remember of this error message.. But..

1) Wait for xpchelper to crash
2) Open terminal and type these in:
"sudo su"
"cd /private/var/folders"
"find /private/var/folders/ -type f | grep -i com.apple.xpchelper.cache"
3) cd to the first one that shows up on the list (it will be in a separate folder from the other xpchelper caches)
"rm -r com.apple.xpchelper.cache"
"pico com.apple.xpchelper.cache" ---> hit ctrl+o to save and ctrl+x to exit
"chflags uchg com.apple.xpchelper.cache"
4) Reboot and you're done!

These are the steps I'm doing (besides the one to the trash).. When I get to step 3), should I cd to the complete path? (till the xxxxxxxx/C/) or just to the xxxxx/ ?

And in the last step, the chflags uchg must be done to the file or to the folder?

And again, I'm really thankful for your help.

thanks for your reply..
forgot to mention, i also renamed com.apple.reportcrash.root.plist on /system/library/launchdaemons.
is it just the same?
reportcrash is not even running.. so i guess this is not related to reportcrash, isn't it?
