I am a bit concerned about this issue of the 1458s from 102. I have been
experiencing this abort ever since I have gone to 5.5 with Express 4 with no
answers as of the 'actual' cause. Two (2) memory dumps and both have pointed
to a piece of code that has not changed in years.

Note that a beta patch does exist for 'certain' 1458s. Call the RC for
additional info.

Thanks,
Jeff Mikolai
