The issue I had previously was while using the latest version of Chrome.
I scanned the same area again with the sound muted and it did NOT crash. I then unmuted the sound, and ran the scan and it still did NOT crash.
The only other difference, I can think of is that I shut down the background programs for Skype, and for Screenhero (desktop sharing).
If I get brave I’ll try to narrow it down further at a later time.
