'J fails' meant a crash dialog 'JQt has stopped working' before the IDE
display came up. Jconsole worked.
As for antivirus, this never happened in 6 years of using J6.02, doing
lots of socket operations. I think our machines are not firewalled
since we have a corporate firewall.
I have a copy of one of the directories that failed & will inspect it.

I agree with Raul that antivirus is usually the culprit when users
complained your software stopped working this morning, it worked just fine
yesterday, and they had not changed anything. All other programs in the
computers work fine except your d*mn program.
More specifically, J can execute arbitrary socket calls and some
antivirus/firewall would like to block such programs.
You can confirm J803 itself had been corrupted or not, by performing a
binary comparison with files from a fresh install.

That sounds to me like either a malware infection or unreliable

I'm not sure how I'd isolate any of those kinds of glitches. I guess
the first thing I'd try is treating it as a windows problem, since
that sounds like the easiest thing to try.

I have the j803 released version installed on the 32-bit Windows
machines at
school, and 3 students have run into a situation where J fails on
startup,
after a few days of normaloperation. The user profile is not the
problem,
and reinstalling J makes it work; though on one of the machines I had to
delete the J directory before reinstalling (on the others an install on
top
of the old directory was OK).
Does anyone have ideas about what's happening, or how I can figure it
out?
