Not really. First because of legal issues. I might be sued for breaking into 
the computer. Second I would have to work with console gdb since X over modem
dialup is not very usable. 

I'm busy for the next month but maybe I'll find some time to get into the
problem. My brothers computer show the same error but it's very slow and
It's pain to debug on it. 

So I ask again, If someone can give me a hint how I can bring a win9x or
win2k installation to show the error, It would help me a lot since I could
setup a VMWare for testing.
