Unfortunately, as I said, it takes days to happen and at that point,
with *all* of my windows going wild it becomes extremely difficult to do
anything at all. I haven't see it for a long time, but only because I
stopped running it. I don't have any clues as to what's wrong but I
suspect this is in the message pumping. Do you do anything explicit with
message pumping?
