Adobe Illustrator CS freezes up, crashes, etc.

It started when I installed Adobe Illustrator CS on my machine at work (Windows Server 2003, enough RAM, 2 Xeons etc.), Adobe Illustrator would go blank and would stop responding. Crap! I like this program, because I know how to work with it to get what I want.

The problem is that I have Russian language installed on the machine and that is the reason for the problem (look here). And the remedy for that is here: http://www.zogovic.cg.yu/aicspatch.exe

I have not tried it yet, but I will now. I will post my results.

It worked. I was able to work with AI for more than 5 minutes without it crashing on me.
