wxPython Crashing randomly at THIThemeTextInfoPublic::GetOptions() const + 9

I'm writing an application for a uni project, and after about 5 minutes it just crashes.

I'm on a MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard, with python 2.6, and wxPython 2.8.12, and according to the crash log i am using libwx_macud-2.8.0.dylib, I'm not a C or a C++ programmer and it is infuriating me. The copy of the crash log is avaliable at http://pastebin.ca/2063975

From the crash log, it appears that you are using OS X's system python. I believe this defaults to 64-bit, which isn't compatible with wxPython based on this SO answer, this blog post, and from the wxPython download website, which states:

Since they use the Carbon API they are limited to running in 32-bit mode.

I'd recommend installing python-2.6.6-macosx10.3.dmg from python.org.
