DW8 Instabilty yet again

Just recovered from a serious crash that DW8 caused when I tried to preview a
page. It took the whole of Explorer out with it. I just about managed to avoid
hitting the restart button by killing and restarting Explorer in Task Manager.
This is my third crash this morning, but the worst. Is this just me?

Could be - hard to say without more info, though. What is your OS? What is
your AV. Is it doing realtime protection? Where is your local site's root
folder? What were you doing when it crashed? Is it reproducible?

I suspect that it is the chip/OS configuration that you are running that may
be causing the problems.

really? I'm using a fully updated copy of XP Pro, and an Athlon 64 3000+ I have a gig and a half of Ram. How do you think this is interacting badly with Dreamweaver?
