search in messages results in crash

[MacGurus]

windows desktop wire

when you try to do a search of messages and you have a large database set it seems to crash in similar fashion to the backup of messages crash referenced at #6177

the entire application doesn't crash only the particular wire username you are searching

i have no idea how big the message history/database must be for this to be a problem

It might not be related to the size of the database. I just noticed that both searching messages, contacts or trying to start a new conversation crashes if you have someone in your contacts that deleted their account and now appear as 'default'

If you clear that conversation's messages, the app stops crashing.
