When AbiWord crashes in WinXP, is the current file saved?

I have a client running AbiWord 2.4.x on a HP a1129n Pavilion computer
(WinXP SP2). Trying to get her to not spend $149 for the MS Word Trial
version that came installed on her computer.

The problem is, AbiWord keeps "crashing," or "blowing up," to use her
words.

I've read that if the plugin version is not the same as the executable
AW will crash. This is not the problem.

Because of time constraints I'm not able to get together with my client
to sit down and solve this issue, but I do have a some questions:

1. Are there any random keypresses that will cause AbiWord to close
abruptly (other than Alt+F4)?

1a. Are there any keypresses in MS-Word that can crash AW?

2. When AW crashes in Windows, is the current file saved somewhere?

2a. Does it save it with a particular extension?

Thank you
