Re: (ASCEND) Constant recurring FE 29



We've determined that the problem below is caused by a user with an HP
Palmtop running WWW/LX Plus (http://www.dasoft.com).  The user
upgraded from version 1 to version 2 yesterday, and since then, every
time he logs in our Maxen crash with FE 29.

     > After weeks of stability (except for the memory leak in
     > 5.0Ap48), last night all of the Maxen in my Reno POP started
     > rebooting constantly with this:

     > FATAL ERROR: Index: 29 Load: ftik.m40 Revision: 6.1b1 Date:
     > 04/18/1998.  Time: 10:14:08 Location: b01fce78 b01fcf14
     > b010446c b011636c b0114904 b01161f0
