Hi Bernd,
yes, thats what the docs say, but how can that be, if new installing the app
from DVD, where it run before fine and on DVD nothing can have happened to
any files.
So my guesss is, that the Mac "remembers" anything from the crash in any tmp
files or something like that, even after restart...

No clue. there have been times, I thought Mac would be more robust as Win.
Long ago...
