You are most likely using one of the UNIX platforms of ICEM CFD 4.2.2 version. Please do the diagnostics on your mesh. If the mesh has troubles (single, multiple, non-manifold etc), the software may crash while doing the smoothing. This does not happen on windows machine though. This is fixed in the next version of ICEM CFD. Please contact your nearest support person to get the later (unreleased though) version.
