I installed the latest version 1.0 on my xp laptop, and I played a few mpeg movies, tried out some features and then after about 10 minutes, something happened. I quit the program (actually I might have killed the process externally - as I've done a zillion times on earlier versions) and some time later it crashed. A message box pops up asking if I want to send in a bug report. I click on yes. On the next startup of the program it immediately crashes and the same message pops up. This happens repeatedly.
My only recourse at this point was to uninstall and reinstall 0.99.
Is this reporting thing new? And is this problem have a workaround to stop it from crashing forever?
how do i stop the crash-send-bug-report-athon on xp
