I'm guessing that you're running Windows 7 and that "Framemaker (Not 
Responding)" appears in the title bar of the FM window. That's not a message 
from FM, it's from the OS. 

IMO, Win 7 is far too quick to pull the trigger on the "Not Responding" message 
when an application takes more than a (very) few seconds to respond to input. 
I've seen that message for several other apps, including Outlook, Word, and 
Acrobat.
