Here's another one that falls under that heading.  Just for your info.
SYS3175: A program in this session encountered a problem and
cannot continue.
EXPLANATION: An access violation exception occurred and was generated
when an attempt was made either to load or store data in an inaccessible
location or to execute an inaccessible instruction.  This exception
corresponds to both the Intel 80386 processor general protection fault
(#13), caused by an invalid access attempt, and the page fault (#14),
caused by an attempt to access an uncommitted page or a page with
incorrect attributes for the desired operation.
ACTION: If you purchased this program, contact the supplier of the
program.  If you are the developer of this program, refer to the
information in the register.
