Ooops! We have caught the critter that was doing this. The GW program
attempts to keep its memory usage down to 4MB. To do this GW monitors
memory usage, and then re-exec's itself.

The code to re-exec was not performing correctly in the "non-commercial"
version. We will be updating the binaries very soon , and will let you know
when they are available.

In the mean time you may just restart the program, and it will resume where
it left off with no ramifications.

Thanks,

Bart Richards
