Oops, what now?

I was editing page of song lyrics (some I picked up off the web) in order to print them out. When I got down to bottom of the page, and tried to delete a block of superflous verbage, an error message and Abi shut down. I lost all my work of course, so I redid the whole thing, down to the point where I lost it, saved it, repeated the block delete, and it shut down again. I reopened Abi, retrieved the file, and tried to delete the same block of text (highlighting it with the left mousekey held down), and when I hit delete, it still shut down. The error message follows.......

ABIWORD caused an invalid page fault in

Is there something a novice like me can do to fix this or do I have to wait for the nice folks at Abiword to release a new update? Bugs and all, I'm still an avid Abi fan. I love the concept. I've updated it several times now, and haven't had to start learning it all over every time, like I did with each new version of WP.
