Notes Standard 8.5 for Mac crashes on open

I have tried all the way to a totally clean install of Notes (deleted both preferences files, install receipts, and Lotus Notes Data directory) and Notes still crashes after I enter my password. Same problem as a lot of others I’ve seen here. No formal crash with entry in CrashReporter, just Notes closing right after I enter my password. And the only messages are in the console log:

Subject: Have Application Enhancer installed?

This sounds similar to other reports when users have installed certain “haxies” that use Application Enhancer (APE).

Yes, I did. Did you hear that from Tosin Onafowokan? I’m the one to figured that out and reported it to him.
