Game Crashing at Memory Alpha

Like the title says, my entire game crashes whenever I go to Memory Alpha. When I load the launcher again, it has to run a check of all the files before I cam play the game, and all is ok.....until I visit MA again, and the cycle happens again.

I filed a ticket about it when it was just on tribble and again when it happened on live.
After it happened to me again last night as I logged back in I saw someone else that seemed to stop running as in totaly frozen in the hall and disappeared and just as they disappeared another person appeared right beside me and I knew right then I was not the only one having this problem.
Nothing on the log
Second archway from the holodeck, turn right or left, doesn't matter. It shuts down.
I even know the exact floor tile line where it shuts down.
When I log back in, it brings me back to the exact area in Memory Alpha but it works fine and I continue into the main room as if nothing happened.
Getting used to it these days.
Tried deleting the three texture files which seemed to make sense the crash is location specific.
Haven't tried it yet to see if it worked.
Either my internet stinks this morning or there is maintained going on.
I'll try it out later.
I highly doubt they fixed the Memory Alpha glitch but, when I landed on Memory after deleting the 3 texture files this morning, I got right in with out the crash.
Might just be coincidence, might be deleting those files, might be they fixed the issue in the patch.
Only tried it once expecting fully to be shut down after the second entrance. Didn't happen this time.
....yet.

I did what someone else mentioned and just stood there at the second archway and wow.
About 1 out of every 5 get stuck in that exact same spot.
For a while there, there was quite a pile up of users frozen in time.
This is a lot bigger then I thought.
Which three files did you delete and has it consistently fixed your issue?
Oh, and there's a similar thread (probably more): http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=324071
My computer may be behind the times, but it runs more-or-less smoothly for STO, but everytime I beam down to Memory Alpha, this bug happens. Going back in, then walking around inside Memory Alpha doesn't trigger the bug again, but every single time I beam down this happens regardless.
Been playing STO since Open Beta, and have never regarded anything as worse than 'meh', if only due to personal standards.
I have exact same issue, every time I go to Memory Alpha, I spawn in transporter room, all seem fine, but as soon as i try to walk through the second doorway it crashes to desktop.
After reloading game everything works fine again, until I leave and come back.
(Windows 7 64bit)
Reloaded and finished my errands and went on to Starbase 39. Upon beam down there I crashed again. On second restart did the file verification, so hopefully won't crash again... until I go back to Memory Alpha of course.
Please fix this devs. Time gating is enough without crash gating as well....
Same. And this has been going on for a while; I've already had the game automatically send two full file dumps to cryptic that took almost an hour each. Every time I beam in, I get to the second hallway and ::pop:: cut to desktop, sorry, so sad, thanks for playing, restart, the end. The problem is: I'm the main crafter for my entire fleet, I fill two orders a week and this glitch is just killing me.
