Win32 (1999-07-21-11 M9) Steps: 1. From Messenger, click New Msg to open the Compose window 2. Let it sit for a few seconds, crashes consistently occurs on Win_nt 4.0 When it crashes, I've got a dialog to come up with a title: NetscapeDispatchWnd: apprunner.exe - Application Error The content of the dialog says: The instruction at "0x00e77bff" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The memory could not be read. Will have Talkback stack trace tomorrow. I do not see this problem on Linux Have not tested Mac yet.

Here is the win_nt 4.0 stack trace: Call Stack: (Signature = msgbaseutil.dll + 0x7bff (0x00e77bff) 0b21c80a) msgbaseutil.dll + 0x7bff (0x00e77bff) msglocal.dll + 0xa2a5 (0x0a02a2a5) msglocal.dll + 0x7056 (0x0a027056) msglocal.dll + 0x6e19 (0x0a026e19) msglocal.dll + 0x1b52 (0x0a021b52) msgbase.dll + 0x440e (0x00e5440e) msgbase.dll + 0x4268 (0x00e54268) msgbase.dll + 0x10e39 (0x00e60e39) msgbase.dll + 0x10c41 (0x00e60c41) msgbase.dll + 0x10b60 (0x00e60b60) USER32.dll + 0x185c (0x77e7185c) nsappshell.dll + 0x191a (0x00d3191a) apprunner.exe + 0x23b7 (0x004023b7) KERNEL32.dll + 0x1ba06 (0x77f1ba06) I do not see the problem on Mac.

Update: This does not happen to me on Win95 & Win98 with this build 19990721

as soon as my nt build finishes, I'll try to reproduce this.

I don't see this on NT either. Is this still happening to you today? Reassigning to ducarroz.

Are you using html or plaintext? Is there anything else interesting about your prefs? How many identities?

Is there anyway to get Talkback to give us the function names rather than just the dll's?

I've tried multiple versions of my prefs and can't reproduce. I'm going to run Purify on it. Seth if you can reproduce it let me know. Fenella, when today's build come out can you try this again and could you also send me a copy of your prefs so I can see if there's anything unusual?

Win_nt 4.0 (1999-07-22-08 M9) I try today's build, the problem is gone. Mark it worksforme
