Help with FP 2003 Crashes

In the last few days I have been trying to update one of my pages but
evertime I try FP crashes. No error message just a pip-up asking do I
want to send to Microsoft. I reformatted and reinstalled Win XP Pro.
and FP 2003. Still get the same problem with that one page. I even
used fpclean. Any help would be appreciated. Here's the page.

There are two main problems:
1) The page was created in Publisher, and contains a large chunk of
Publisher specific code (which will only display on PCs that have
Publisher installed).

2) There is a hidden field that contains a considerable amount of
gibberish (encrypted text). As far as as I know (I could be mistaken)
a hidden field is limited to 256 characters.

Thanks for the help. Would you suggest copying from Publisher to
notepad then to FP? Also the gibberish that you mentioned is that
located by the paypal button? Also I noticed in the source code that
there is a lot of the following.
<p align="center">&nbsp;</p>
<p align="center">&nbsp;</p>
<p align="center">&nbsp;</p>
How do I fix that or should I just start a brand new webpage?

Thanks again, Ron

With Publisher involved, I would start again in FrontPage, and dump
Publisher. Publisher is excellent for desktop publishing, but useless
is an overstatement when describing its Web page features.

The gibberish is part of the Pay-Pal button form - but I have never
seen a Pay-Pal button with that amount of code behind it before.

Delete all the excess <p align="center">&nbsp;</p>
