In Poser 7, whenever I try to manual add a texture to a material, the program is completely locking up. Does anyone have a fix for this?

If you start a new scene, load a primitive prop, and go to Materials room does this still happen? I hadn't had that happen before - it's not connected to a specific model is it?

Well that was the easy option :) If you are on a PC, I believe Poser uses the OS standard file dialog function calls to make the File Browser dialog, and if that is causing Poser crash then I suspect you have other problems besides. Are you able to do File -> Open in some program like Notepad, and drill for a file?
If you're on a Mac it may behave completely differently, I suspect it works the same way but I don't know.

Sorry, I had to go to bed. Yes, on my PC I am able to open files from other programs.

Then it sounds to me like some part of your Poser installation has become damaged or misconfigured - while there might be a fix for this I have no idea what or where it would be. I think you probably ought to contact EF support - I suspect they will tell you something like "reinstall Poser" but better you get it from them.
