First of all, thanx for all the response (including the off-list 
response from Macromedia).

It turns out I hadn't applied one fix from the release notes
http://www.macromedia.com/support/flashcom/releasenotes/mx/rn_mx.html
Apparently this can cause a lockup of a shared file object when there 
are a lot of people chatting, which would cause FlashCom to crash.

A crash like that has happened twice, once on Saturday during testing, 
once earlier today. The first time nothing really bad happened, server 
was restarted and everything worked again. But today, during the crash 
the FCChat.chat_fc.history.fso file was damaged. This resulted in 
FlashCom crashing whenever 6 lines were entered in the chat (I presume 
because after 6 lines the log cache is flushed to the disk). After 
renaming the log file FlashCom stayed up. So about an hour ago I 
restarted the service for, hopefully, the last time to implement all the 
suggested fixes and rthe change from the release notes. Since then it 
has been stable, and I hope it will remain that way.

If you want to drop by, don't forget to use a computer that has a 
webcam, you might get your 15 minutes of fame :)
