This seems similar to the issue I'm experiencing rarely but can't reproduce in a consistent way - wget starts reading cookies, prints "Stored cookie ..." and crashes somewhere while reading cookies.txt. Beside that I've never been able to crash wget under windows (personally I use it on nt4 and 95)... there are those windows specific issues (mostly related to the different rules working the file system), but no crashes. There had been some memory related issues during *long* downloads (say 6 millions of very small files) around 1.5-1.6 iirc, after that no more problems... but I don't need that kind of downloads anymore so I'm not really sure.
