Actually that was a typo on the AVSForum...I actually have the correct
c:\vlc\plugins dir. 

But never the less, VLC crashes my PC when I start the program stand-a-lone
and open a MPG (vcd format).

What is this C:\dlv directory?
The --plugin-path option for vlc looks for vlc-specific plugins, so
unless you have manually modified the installation of vlc you should try
the following line:
C:\vlc\vlc.exe --plugin-path C:\vlc\plugins %url%
