Greetings,
Try making sure JBidwatcher isn't running, launch Terminal, and enter:
mv ~/Library/Preferences/JBidwatcher/jbdb ~/Library/Preferences/JBidwatcher/jbdb.old

Then try to re-launch JBidwatcher, and let me know how it goes.

If there's still an issue, I'd appreciate it a lot if you could re-file on the Lighthouse issue tracker, at:
http://jbidwatcher.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8037-jbidwatcher/tickets

I'm not really using the bug tracking on Sourceforge anymore.

Greetings,
So I've gone at this a totally different way, and I need someone to test what I've done.

I've built a .dmg of JBidwatcher, and would like someone who is having the crashing problem to try it out.

Takers?
