Asset Store Crashes Unity Editor upon launch

Hey I have a problem with the asset store in unity 5.3. The asset store crashes my unity editor every time I open it from the windows tab. It keeps saying that libcef.dll is violating something. Unity Editor [version: Unity 5.3.4f1_fdbb5133b820]

 libcef.dll caused an Access Violation (0xc0000005)
   in module libcef.dll at 0033:ba671339.

I remember someone had crashing problems with the asset store in Unity, the solution was to disable "Show Asset Store search hits" in the Editor's Preferences. Not sure if your problem is related, but I guess it's worth a shot.

I don't like to browse the asset store within Unity, just seems slow and sometimes causes problems. I view it in a Internet browser and only open inside of Unity if I have to.
