Android preferences freeze when using ADT Plugin v9 with Eclipse on Mac?

Question

I just installed Eclipse 3.6.1 and added the ADT Plugin v9 on Mac OS X 10.6.6. When I go to preferences to add the path to the Android SDK, I get a popup with "Thanks for using the Android SDK!" with a checkbox for enabling usage stats. At this point, Eclipse freezes, and I can neither continue nor cancel.

I have to force quit Eclipse, and when relaunching, the same issue appears every time.

Any ideas how to avoid or bypass this? I suppose the popup will only be displayed until some config value has been set to first_launch = false or similar.

Click on Window -> Android SDK and AVD Manager This will complain that android sdk location is not set in preferences and will popup the dialog saying "Thanks for using the Android SDK". You'll be able to click on proceed and dialog will disappear.

Now go to preferences and set your android sdk location.
