Makes sense. With the thumbnail view enabled, Windows has to monitor every file in the directory for changes, and update the thumbs all the time. With other types it watches for changes, but it doesn't have to be so obsessive about it. Now that I think about it, the times that I've had permission trouble it's always been with thumbs. Not definitive, but worth looking out for.
