I believe it as to do with registering the MIBs more than once.  My 
colleague has been able to resolve this by unregistering the MIBs 
"properly".  I say properly because they were being unregistered but I 
don't think it was being done the right way.  At least the new way 
certainly doesn't cause the crash.

Are there any detailed examples on how to unregister MIBS "properly" ???
I saw some quick tutorial for registering but I don't recall seeing much 
info on the unregistering side of things.  I will keep looking.

Thanks, Brendan.
