I have a Windows XP SP2 machine running the VNC Server at work.  Using a 
Windows XP SP2 machine at home, I connect via RealVNC.  The program will 
randomly crash with the error messages below (screenshots at 
www.dafunks.com/RealVNC).  The biggest problem with this is that I have 
to drive an hour into work to restart the machine.

Error 1:
winvnc.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry 
for the inconvenience.

Error 2:
winvnc.exe
Error signature
szAppName: winvnc.exe   szAppVer: 3.3.7.0  szModName: winvnc.exe
szModVer: 3.3.7.0   offset: 00005722

This random problem has existed in all versions of RealVNC since late 2002.
