I don't think the program hangs there. As for the KERNEL32 routine that
raises that exception, that looks so weird to me! I tried to follow CGF's
suggestion to just "continue" from that point. OK, I tried it. But it
doesn't get me anywhere. The exception gets called over and over,
many-many times that I gave up.
