Dr. Watson was annoying at one time years ago. I disabled it.
I used this procedure to do it. :
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;188296 how to
enahle / disable Dr. Watson

Recently I have had my win explorer crash and reboot automatically and want
to see the Dr. Watson log, so I enabled it again.
Now I no longer get the crashes of IE[6] that I have been getting for some
time when I exit [IE6.0]

What gives? Any comments?

I was also wondering if I could force a Dr. Watson snapshot for testing
purposes.
[ I haven't gotten any Windows Explorer crash and reboot instances since I
re-enabled Dr. Watson]
