2008 Crashes in Assembly

SW crashes when I try to select the first (base) component to the new assembly. It happens using either the drop down menu or feature manager. Old assemblies can be brought up in session, but I cannot add a component without a crash. I ran SW Rx which cleans all temp directories and confirms other system properties are OK. The recommended card and driver is used. Chkdsk shows no problems. I have not change any SW system settings. I did notice when looking at the windows temp dir that SW wrote many bitmap toolbar files to this directory, which I have not seen before. I am running Win XPP SP2.
 
The problem fixed. The firewall listed sldworks.exe as a keylogger and blocked it. Once I allowed the sldworks.exe process there are no more crashes, but it is strange that this problem only occurs in assembly mode.
