Thank you for your response.  I also spoke with a representative from QB, and he helped me clear the

cache in the folder %temp% on my computer....which allowed me to finally get into QB to work.  Today, however, it is back to crashing again. 

I have found that if I can get the home page to load, and quickly get into a task, then my chances of it remaining open are greater.  But this has gone on for way too long and QB needs to resolve this issue! 

Maybe if we all call in and file a complaint, they would look for a faster resolution??
