Hi,

I've had crashes before - some related to systray. Make sure you are using the 
latest version of both Win32::GUI, PerlApp (7.3) and Perl (5.8.7+). I've had 
some issues (crashes and silent exits) with PerlApp under Vista (fine under XP) 
but they have all been fixed in the latest version. Drop me a mail off list if 
this doesn't solve things.

Cheers,

Jeremy.
