I started having that problem a lot when I was using an older version of 
Trinity. I never spent much time trying to determine the cause, and when I 
upgraded, Konqueror stopped crashing, problem solved. 

In the meanwhile, I would say, from my experience, that it seemed to be the 
act itself (of manually cutting and pasting) that caused Konqueror to crash 
for me; this may not be the same for you. 

My workarounds (before upgrading): 
1. right-click on item, choose either "copy to" or "move to" from menu. This 
is a bit unwieldy, as when you stumble into other menu options, you will be 
given a choice of practically every location in your system and/or local 
network; then, if you slip for a moment, you might succeed in transferring 
your item to some unknown place. So it may take a few tries to get used to 
how this feature works -- and I myself don't like it so much. 
2. Also, files can be transferred by command-line, but this is also awkward. I 
created a couple of ready-made commands for "copy to" or "move to", but they 
are nothing special. You probably already know how to do this kind of thing. 

Best guess is that you need to upgrade (or perhaps downgrade), as it it 
probably only a bug in your version of either TDE or your OS (ubuntu, debian, 
whatever).
