I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'do crosswords perhaps' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'harry' indicates anagramming the letters (harry can mean to attack or spoil).
'loves' anagrammed gives 'SOLVE'.

'to' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
