There is the event Application.OnException - if unhandled exceptions get to
this level then you can process them in here.
A component could override this value - there are other less obscure ways -
depends on what does the initial call/event. If they replace the/a window
procedure, then their window procedure event handler could "swallow" all the
unhandled exceptions ...
You need to look at the stack trace or single step from the point of the
initial exception to find out what is happening.
