Live 6 crashing on quit and on session close

When I close Live 6, it crashes and the next time I open it, it asks if I want to restore the files from the crash. The set that is open in it isn't very big, has only 1 VST "Crystal" and it crashes whether or not all the tracks using it are frozen or not.

With this problem I can't even open another new sessions because when it tries to close the current session it crashes and reopens with that current session loaded. Is there a way to make it load with no session opened?

I'm running it on a Macbook Pro, Mac OSX 10.4.8

An update...

Just thought I'd post what ended up fixing it. Ableton support wrote back to me with the following and it worked:
Can you open Live at all? If yes, open it, hold the SHIFT key of your computer keyboard, and choose "New Live set" from the File menu. That will open a fresh new set. Then, go to the Preferences, File/Folder tab, and click the 'save' button under 'Save current set as template'.
