In that post you wrote: " I have now removed Eset Nod32 x64
Anti-virus, Daemon Tools, Adobe Version Cue Server, and Adobe Drive
CS4 x64. Things seem to be working now. My new theory is that it was
Adobe Drive CS4 x64. "

You haven't proven anything yet. One OR MORE of those items, in
conjunction with TSVN, causes the crash. You changed too many things
at once. Go back and continue troubleshooting (add/remove ONE piece of
software at a time), then report to the appropriate vendor. Adobe
likely won't even listen to you (you do plan on reporting it so it can
get fixed, right?) until you've remove all doubt that it could be
something else.
