You could try writing a small C program that does a readdir of that
directory and lstat of each file in it, logging what it's about to do
before each step. That would let you narrow down which entry is
triggering it, if that is indeed the cause.

I think Michel LaBarre's suggestion of running chkdsk and sfc is a
good one; strace also might help.
