Hi Andreas,
Thank you for responding.
Here's what I just did to try to figure it out:
I deleted my old log.
I restarted my computer.
I opened my image at 4:14
I opened the browser
At 4:16 I got the emergency evaluator.
Here is the new dump:

Interesting. Do you get a SqueakDebug.log when this happens? Usually,
the emergency evaluator pops up when there is an error inside the error
handling but there is a chance that the SqueakDebug.log has already been
written at this point. If you can find it, please send it.
Cheers,
