If this came from the current release of Comet (or a relatively new one), The crash happened in a routine that gets a 64k segment of memory. The memory address comes from a memory allocation call to windows. The routine calls windows malloc and signals an error if the carry bit is returned. otherwise it will use the memory block returned. Looking closely at the code, I would exdpect this error to happen at address 1717, not the address you reported.

This is a very frequently used piece of code (thousands of calls a day on thousands of machines). I would check memory. It is almost unthinkable that we would run out of memory these days, but some other application could have interfered
