If there is anything that I am used to (with any version of Windows
that I have had), it is the occasional crash. If you are still
running Souper for Windows, why not try writing down the exact error
message, and posting it? I had replicable GPF's when I used Souper
for Windows. I contacted Bob Rush, and he worked with me.

Hey... As they say in some circles, I will not be the one. We all
have choices in the programs that we can reliably use.

Again... If you can remember what was happening when the error
occurred, and what commands you use(d) to run Souper95, why not post
that information? It might help some of us help YOU.
I have had crashes in Souper95. However, they usually seem to stem
from a bad PPP connection (on my ISP's or my phone line's end). I
know this is all frustrating and irritating, to say the least. But,
hey, just chill, OK? :)... There are people on this list who can
help. I should know. I have gotten lots of assistance from users on
this list.

Now, I notice that you run YES and Yarn95. Perhaps, you can help ME
:)... I am getting crashes when I try to compose messages under YES.
If you could email or post regarding how you run YES, it might be very
helpful to me. Thanks, in advance, too.
