Premiere CS5 keeps crashing (I'm an animator using HD)

Question

I have been using CS5 on my PC and I am using it to animate in HD. I've been nesting sequences together to clean up tracks for more space. While I'm working, a message pops up saying "An error has occured, the program must shut down" I look in the details and it said the Fault Module was PremiereFiltersMetaPlugin.prmnp (something like that) Once it crashes, I have to open up the task manager and close it in there, otherwise I can't open it again. I have no idea what to do, and this is frustrating because it happens within 30 seconds of opening the project. Can anyone help?
