Did you ever post schematics of this thing anywhere? Your website would be good; there's also an alt.binaries.electronics.schematics or some such thing but not everyone has access to binary newsgroups (including me, as of this morning, it seems -- I must call my ISP about that!).
I've been watching your various threads, and have thought "shorting bridge, ho hum, he knows what he's doing..." -- I just remembered you're a newbie.
If you have a shorting bridge it _must_ be operated with a substantial inductor on the input side -- other wise you'll get high currents. In fact, my one truly dramatic experience with exploding FETs came from a power supply circuit with shoot-through problems. If the snubber cap that you're installing is on the input side then it's just not compatible with make-before-break H-bridge action.
That having been said, if you're putting the snubber on the input side then you may be better off with a more conventional break-before-make H-bridge. This _will_ require a driver with a controlled dead time, and probably some work to make sure that your IGBTs don't volunteer to turn on because of high dV/dt between the emitter and collector (this is what was exploding those FETs at one point).
