Avast 7 crashing Sysinternals Process Explorer

[pk]

I found the problem. How do you use process explorer that it leads to BSOD? Is it running for long time?
Thanks.

no BSOD, just process explorer crash.

I start process explorer and ~2sec later crash. I not able to do anything in process explorer, its crashing so quickly.

Can you please generate a user dump and upload it somewhere? (our ftp: http://support.avast.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=18)
When you receive the application error, run Task Manager, go to Processes tab, find proceexp64.exe, right click and choose generate dump option.
Thanks.

well, the problem is that procexp64.DMP dump is 110MB, and my network connection is very slow at the moment, so unfortunately I wont be able to do that at least today, maybe tomorrow

UPDATE: I deleted the registry items for the column sets and all is OK on both systems. 
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Sysinternals\Process Explorer\ColumnSet0 and ColumnSet1 and so on.
Very interesting issue.  Now I have to rebuild eight column sets.  Like I'm going to remember all of that... 

So, any progress on this issue?  I've just run Process Explorer for the first time since installing Avast 8 Free three weeks ago.  It's otherwise run OK on this Win7x64 box I built last July and a laptop running since Nov. 2011.  I've been using Process Explorer since version 1 to troubleshoot 100's of systems and this is the first time I've ever seen it belch.  Please advise.  Thank you!

1) Not a BSOD
2) Shields disable, no fix.
