OleMainThreadWndName error

[James Weatherall]

John,

Sounds like a bug in something else installed on your system, or in the
system itself.  We've certainly never had any reports of such an error
message.  Does it make a difference whether the server is in use or not at
the time of the reboot?

Regards,

Wez @ RealVNC Ltd.
