Is there any way to finding this?  The most information I got was from
the Event Viewer:

  Application popup: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library : Runtime
  Error!

  Program: ...Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe

  This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an
  unusual way.  Please contact the application's support team for more
  information.

  For more information, see Help and Support Center at

This did sound like something similar, but it doesn't look like it's
the problem.  My script doesn't use any shares, and in case DevStudio
does something funny I disconnected the only mapped share I had.
Don't know what a "WAG" is, and the above faq entry didn't help...
