Wow. Very odd. The language reference says that LiveScroll is a locked 
property. You can't
shouldn't be able to alter it at runtime. It should be throwing an exception of 
some kind in this
instance, not crashing. I can reproduce the crashing on RB5.5 and RB2006 as 
well.

The solution is to set the LiveScroll value in the properties window. 

If you absolutely need the ability to toggle livescroll at runtime then you 
could sort of hack it
by handling the MouseDown event yourself, but it would be messy considering the 
arrows aren't
always going to be in the same place on every OS.

I have signed on to the following bug report and added some additional info:

Thank you for bringing this up Daniel.
