Any chance you're running a non-english language pack? I'm not seeing that... What version did you upgrade from - a recent one?

No it's an English language pack. I upgraded from 6.40. It's been running fine for a few days, but now I can't keep it running for more than a couple of minutes. Could this possibly be caused by internet or server connectivity issues? Is it possible to downgrade from 6.5 to 6.4??

You can downgrade to 6.42 but we would like to figure out why it is crashing.

Older versions are available at http://www.newsbin.com/downloads.php

Quade is working on 6.51 now to address some issues that were not uncovered until after the 6.50 release.

Is there anything else I can provide in the way of diagnostics to help figure out why it's crashing?

Running AMD or Intel?

Intel Core i5-2500
16Gb RAM (55% utilised)

OK, worth a shot - there were spurious AMD issues a while back, not the case here. Might be best to wait for the next release, assuming downgrading solves your problem. Just going back to the original version you were running is useful information, whether it fixes it or not.

FYI I've been downgraded to v6.42 for a few weeks now and no crashes, so the problem seems to have been specific to the 6.50 release

6.51B4 had a known crash issue (known now).

6.51RC2 is almost ready for release. Just letting it perk a little bit right now.
