total Windows freeze while running Oxygen :-(

As far as i've been able to use it i love Oxygen, but it has already managed to freeze Windows completely quite a few times. That hardly ever happens when i don't have Oxygen running. Sometimes i have Firefox crashing, but it never takes the Operating System down with it. I haven't yet figured out a specific 'method' to make it freeze, so i have no clue to give you for your debugging

Please note that oXygen is a Java application and if you experience a crash or a system freeze that should not be caused by the application itself but by how Java and your operating system interacts.
Try using the distribution that contains a JVM and make sure your operating system has the latest service pack.

Best Regards,

Please help us to reproduce the freeze and fix it. How do you start up <oXygen/> when you experience the freeze: from the Start menu -> Programs -> Oxygen 7.1 shortcut or from the command line with the [oXygen-install-folder]/oxygen.bat script ? If you start it from the Start menu shortcut please start <oXygen/> several times from a command line using the [oXygen-install-folder]/oxygen.bat script to see if this also freezes Windows. By freezing Windows do you mean that the CPU goes to 100% and you cannot even switch to other Windows applications already started ? Does the freeze occur also with version 7.0, or it occurs only with version 7.1 ?

Do other <oXygen/> users experience such a freeze ?

Thank you,
Sorin
