Calibre Constantly Crashing

I just got my Kindle 2 for Christmas and was soo excited to find Calibre the problem is I haven't really been able to use it since I installed it. It seems to constantly crash. I am using WXP, installed Calibre 0.6.32, have turned off the Firewall disabled my Anti-Virus and still no go. I've run the debug as mentioned in some of the research I've done and it looks like it has something to do with fonts but I'm not sure where to go from here. Any help would be appreciated! Below is the Debug information.

Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]

Welcome to MobileRead, Stephaner.

Hopefully, Kovid or someone else will log on soon with suggestion.

In the meantime, check out some of our ebooks available here, free for the downloading.

You've got a problem with the font setup on your system. First check the permissions on your c:|windows\fonts folder and its contents.

I am the computer administrator but the C:Windows and the c:\Windows\Fonts folder does show read only...is that what you're referring to? Could that be the problem??

That is normal for the folder.
Open the folder (same place the fonts manager in the control panel will send you) and locate some of the fonts on the list and see if they will open (double click) .
A font viewer should display the font set.

I did not see any of those items in my fonts folder, evenwith Hidden system files SHOWING.

Well it seems to be working now. I poked around the Font folder a bit and found some items that didn't belong. After taking care of them I'm running with no problems! THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH!!!!
