Hi :) errr, is LO still crashing ridiculously often or did you fix that by renaming the User Profile?
Crashing used to be often caused by Java being slightly behind but that seems to have dropped away now that so many people have moved away from Java entirely. If you are using the internal back-end (rather than MySql, Postgresql or something) for your database then you do still need java so please just update it to the ultra-latest version. Typically, since Oracle took it over, it seems to need updating about 1/month.
