cool.
several have tried in the past (most failed).
you should post a writeup for posterity's sake.
My setup is probably overkill, but what I did was download PlugY 10 (the latest version), copy the PlugY and Mod PlugY folders into the D2 directory, the D2 MODS directory, and the HU directory (just in case it referenced a specific area or multiple areas), adjusted the .ini settings of HU and PlugY, and copied my PlugY .ini (HU folder) settings to the PlugY .ini and PlugYDefault .ini inside of the Mod PlugY and PlugY folders. You probably only need the folders and files inside of the HU directory.
The crashing issue occurs when PlugY .dll file is corrupted. I don't know when/why that happened/happens, but if you copy the PlugY .dll file that's in the 1.09d folder of D2SE into your HU Mod folder (the same place as Patch_D2) and use these settings for PlugY.ini, it should work:

When you're in-game, it'll let you switch pages in your personal stash - DON'T PUT ITEMS ON ANY PAGE BUT THE FIRST PAGE. Only use Page1 and/or only use the Shared Stash.
The shared stash button is almost hidden entirely by the health globe. You can click the top part of it to switch, though.
Just because I'm cautious, I haven't saved any items on a page higher than 100, even though I have 1000 enabled. Who really uses that many pages, anyway? Are you saving a copy of every item in the game? Lol.
