Thank you for the update to the plugin!

I have an odd issue that you might or might not be able to help me with. Periodically, when I'm using the plugin to open an Overdrive page to borrow a book, Calibre will stop working. This only happens in those circumstances; in other words, Calibre has never crashed on me at any other time.

I don't get a useful error message, just the default Windows "Calibre has stopped working" popup, and then Calibre closes.

I know that's not much to go on, so here's an example of how it happens:

1. Highlight a book in my library and, using the right-click context menu, access Overdrive Link > Borrow > Borrow book from [library abbreviation].

2. Default browser (Chrome) opens the library Overdrive page for that book.

3. Windows popup shows up ("Calibre has stopped working"), Calibre window is whited out, and then Calibre closes.

I have 11 lending libraries listed that it searches, and I have it check for all ebook formats except for Blio and all audiobook formats except for WMA, so I often have a long-ish list of places and formats a book is available in. It seems more likely to do it if I have enough possible library matches to require a "Borrow" menu with the libraries listed in a submenu. It doesn't seem to be random, i.e., if trying one library crashes Calibre, other library access from the same book will tend to crash it as well, though I don't see any correlation with specific libraries across multiple books, nor does it seem to be a sporadic internet connection issue, because if I switch immediately after restarting to another book, it's as likely as not to be fine.

If I can provide any other information or error logs, please let me know.
