I just did a complete uninstall, reinstall, and ran Adobe the updates, and Bridge continues to crash when I try to launch it. Below is the Microsoft error. Any ideas? CS2 is still running fine but I use CS3 for the advanced filters when doing metadata chores.

AppName: bridge.exe AppVer: 2.1.1.9 ModName: bridge.exe
ModVer: 2.1.1.9 Offset: 00354647

I had a similar problem with Illustrator CS3 crashing on launch. Adobe customer service sent me to KnowlegeBase file
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb 401517 (I believe there’s a similar note for the PC.)

Their conclusion:

"This error is caused by the Version Cue Client utility failing to update correctly.

"Delete the 3.1.0 folder located in Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Version Cue CS3/Client and then reinstall the 3.1.0 update for the Version Cue Client to correct this error.

"You can download the update to manually install it from the following location:
