I don't see any reason for making this assumption, other than perhaps "because that's what makes Linux hang like this", "that's what makes Windows hang like this", or "that's what someone in the elevator said it must be". = Mike _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.

It's clear that you have a problem, but it's probably not a file descriptor leak. Hard freezes like the one you're describing are typically caused by hardware problems or device driver bugs.
