I'm sure that's frustrating!

I can't imagine how you think anyone else would help you, though, with the
level of detail you provided. How about perhaps reading
http://catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html, and then letting us know
things like what third-party plug-ins you are using, what the symptoms of
the crash are, what you were doing when it started happening, whether there
are any errors in the error log, whether it happens in a freshly created
workspace, and so forth.

As to having to recreate you project over and over, I'd suggest:

a) launch eclipse
b) create your project
c) shut down eclipse
d) back up the project folder (copy it somewhere else, outside your
workspace)
e) restart eclipse

That way you at least have something you can recover from should it
crash again. Why keep starting from scratch?

In addition to Walter's suggestions, it would be useful to know what
version of Java you're using. In Eclipse, Help > About > Config will
tell you this.

Also, if you're running a 64-bit OS (you only said "Windows" but not
what version), please make sure you are using a 64-bit JDK + 64-bit
Eclipse, or else 32-bit JDK + 32-bit Eclipse.
