- I've pointed this out to Cliff and Mat, but God knows how busy they
- are! I have been experiencing problems with Executor freezing after small
- amounts of idle time, say less than ten minutes (before anyone asks, yes,
- it is a registered, keyed copy I'm using). Basically, I step away from my
- computer to get a cup of coffee, and if I come back, I need to restart
- Executor... and the system can be formatting a disk, or running a game, or
- whatever, it will still freeze if it doesn't receive any user events. When
- it freezes, Alt-Esc aping away and back again allows the mouse pointer to
- move again, but the keyboard is still gone, and the mouse itself cannot
- affect anything it's clicked on.
-
- I was just wondering if anyone else has noticed the same problem. It
- started with 1.99q8 and has continued through to q12.

- Thanks much,

- P.S. Freezing happens regardless of the app running, whether it's running
- in DOS or Win95, and even in Browser is not running.
