(All Non JS) Geoff, can you use SockCtr and see if 1614 reclaims sockets under the same circumstances as 1356? This is worth adding to the bug report.

Additionally, should something bizarre happen, you should report it straight away. This lets us map problems to recent changes. Saying "oh, it's been happening for a couple of weeks" when you update daily is not useful. B.

More generally; all issues should be reported on the issue tracker, with sufficient detail to describe the problem fully. Any issue which is not reported in this way will almost certainly not be investigated, and will certainly not be tracked properly, so will be forgotten. So, if you want something fixed, then report it on the issue tracker! John-Mark.

Netsurf does crash from time to time and it has crossed my my mind that this may be MouseAxess related. However in my case I have wondered whether the extra window dragging and scrolling facilities offered by MouseAxess are causing the problems. I haven't seen anything which would suggest switch bounce here. > I have not found any other programs which crash like this... Neither have I. I'll try a few days without MouseAxess running and see if anything comes up. -- _ Brian Jordan Virtual RPC-AdjustSA on Windows 8.1 Pro RISC OS 6.20 _ --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
