SW customer care employee told me the issue could be a corruption in the registry, it might be happened during the SP-1 upgrade.
Then in REGEDIT, under HKEY_CURRENT_USER, rename the Solidworks' entries folder.
Next time Solidworks is loaded a new entries' folder has being created with defaults values: now i need to test it out looking for further crashes.
In case of registry entries to be blamed for crashing Solidworks

Vista Networking Stack

clipped from en.wikipedia.org Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 contain a brand new networking stack, named Next Generation TCP/IP stack,[1] which brings large improvements in all areas of network-related functionality.[2] It includes native implementation of IPv6, as well as complete overhaul of IPv4. The new TCP/IP stack uses a new method to store configuration settings that enables more dynamic control and does not require a computer restart after settings are changed. The new stack, implemented as a dual stack model, is based on a strong host model and features an infrastructure to enable more modular components that can be dynamically inserted and removed.

TCP Optimizer - Latency

clipped from www.speedguide.net

This tool can be used to effectively estimate the maximum anticipated latency
for BDP/RWIN calculations. In order to do that, we recommend using a larger
number of hosts than the default 5, and a larger packet size (since larger
packets tend to have a bit higher latency). Then, as an estimate of your maximum
anticipated latency, rather than using the Maximum RTT, use the average RTT,
multiplied by two.

Open-source software

clipped from www.virtualdub.org

VirtualDub is a video capture/processing utility for 32-bit Windows platforms (95/98/ME/NT4/2000/XP), licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL). It lacks the editing power of a general-purpose editor such as Adobe Premiere, but is streamlined for fast linear operations over video. It has batch-processing capabilities for processing large numbers of files and can be extended with third-party video filters. VirtualDub is mainly geared toward processing AVI files, although it can read (not write) MPEG-1 and also handle sets of BMP images.

SonyVegas Howto:2

clipped from thepiratebay.org

To register without them collecting you IP adress (mine is static) go offline and then try to register. You will be asked of an activitation code, simply enter this from a keygen (found one here on piratebay).

When I used the keygen, I also needed to change the serial number since the activation code algorithm uses your machine ID and serial number.
