Audition constant freezing, crashing or buggin out

There have been a few reports that are very similar to this, and no clear indication of exactly what's causing it - it doesn't affect everybody, but the people it's happening to generally aren't too pleased...

There are two things worth mentioning: the first is that if this is a genuine crash, Audition will generate a crash report that will say exactly what failed. For more information about this look here: Audition crashed - now what? If you are desperate, then post the log onto this thread (copy and paste) - if there's anything obvious it will show up there. The second thing is that at least one person that this has happened to fixed it at a stroke by deleting all of Audition's preferences (see information in crash thread) and letting it restart with a vanilla selection. The quick way to do this is to restart Audition with the Shift key held down. Be aware though that this will also destroy any custom settings you've made.

If we are lucky, whatever setting it is that's causing this will become a little clearer. That would be good, because then there would only be one thing that anybody would need to delete.
