>We have a user here whose computer crashes hard when they exit my application. I did see this before, but it was on Win 95 and involved the dcom update. Once this was executed then the problem when away. But I dont know why this win 98 system is doing this as others seem to run OK. Any help would be appreciated.

Are you connected to any COM automation servers? I've noticed that while NT will automatically disconnect from automation servers on exit, at least some versions of 95 do not. The solution is to set the reference to null before exit.
