In article <1539@loki.une.oz.au> rbennett@loki.une.oz.au (Robert Bennetts)
asked about UAE's in WinGif and Program Manager.

I have WinGif V0.9, and I have seen it crash on a couple of dubious BMP files
(dubious because they were generated by a quick-and-dirty filter that my
partner wrote).  It will always crash if I trim a bitmap off the top edge
of the image - it does not limit the selection box to the boundaries of the
actual image.

I know I can crash Program Manager by botching a DDE conversation with it;
I have seen it crash a couple of other times, but I couldn't say what causes
it.  It is pretty easy for one Win3 task to crash another.  Never leave
windows running after a UAE - it is very likely that the damage is not limited
to the task that crashed.
