from experience, don't assume it is either crafty or comet that is
causing the problems.  win95 has more than enough bugs itself to
crash all by itself.. :)

But we have seen such stuff in the past...  two programs on one machine
doing different things, different ways, with different files, and
different
system calls, all I can say is *don't get near any fans"...  because
you-
know-what will likely hit.. :)
