I've recently reinstalled Vista and I'm now using the latest version of Live Writer (before, I was using the beta). Live Writer has always handled video embeds exceptionally well. Cut, then paste within Live Writer, and it's always worked perfectly. But the first time I tried to do that with the fresh Vista Install (w/ SP1) and the new Essentials version, LiveWriter immediately crashed. So I tried using the "insert video" dialog. This is the error I received.
System.AccessViolationException: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.

I've not found anything on the Web from anyone having this problem, but it's driving me crazy.
LiveWriter crashing whenever I input a YouTube video.
