Editing PHP pages containing forms crashes Dreamweaver

Question

I have a small intranet project I'm using for doc storage and
retrieval on a localhost machine.
Have Windows XP, DW CS3, MySQL DB, and phpMyAdmin.
The project was working fine up until about a week ago.
Now, whenever I place my cursor in an area of the php file
that is between <?PHP ?> tags, Dreamweaver throws an
exception error.
I had installed PEAR between the last time it worked and when
it started throwing errors.
I removed all the PEAR folders and files and made sure
PHP.ini isn't referencing any PEAR .dlls etc.
Checked environment paths too, BTW.
I'm still thoroughly broken though.
I'm inclined to think it's not in the code itself since that
wasn't changed between the time everything worked and when
everything stopped working.
Looking for any ideas as to possible causes of the
problem.

It looks as though you have a corrupt cache file. Follow
