There's no way of catching such errors (since they aren't errors in the traditional sense... they're bugs in whatever broke the stack). AV an 'Personal' firewalls are the usual suspects. Of course there may be other types of programs that do this (AOL used to do it but that was years ago... no idea what they use now). As it's not a CVSNT problem all I can really do is point people at the Faq and try to find out what the problem software is, so I can suggest workarounds. Tony
