interesting.. glad it stops crashing, but we'd still need to figure out what went wrong... the same memory access seems to trigger the crash, but different memory offsets, probably normal because a dll gets loaded in a different memory offset each time.
@Bürste: your screenshot is nice, but unfortunately, it doesn't contain a stack trace, if you're able to provide a stack trace, that would be very helpful, it seems to be something in ntdll, but without more info, I can't see who called that to cause it to crash.
btw, the whole msn version and forced update and wireshark dump is completely useless with the current issue.

Thanks for the hints kakaroto. The only offset that seems to be remaining constant is the 0xc0000417 one, both Bürste and I have gotten the same value. I'll have a look at assigning a debugger so i can get a full stack trace.

Well thats interesting, the new bin Neustradamus mentioned, aMSN-0.98.1-1-tcl85 doesnt cause the crash :/ So if you can figure out what changed between tcl84 and tcl85 you've found the cause i guess?

TCL changelog if its any use: http://tcl.cvs.sourceforge.net/tcl/tcl/ChangeLog  or   http://tcl.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/tcl/tcl/changes?view=log

humm.. ok, well the only change that was done was to use a statically linked tcltls extension (the TLS extension for tcl that takes care of all SSL/TLS connections).. the reason we repackaged it is because it didn't work before for some people because some stupid programs would install some wrong SSL library in C:\windows\system32 and it caused it to be unable to load the dll dependencies..
if you can confirm that indeed the new binary doesn't crash anymore, then that would mean that the issue was caused by a corrupted/wrong/incompatible libssl binaries in your c:\windows\system32 directory, probably installed by some other third party software...
I would be SO GLAD if this was the issue! Smiley

I checked C:\windows\system32 for SSL libs. I found libeay32.dll and libssl32.dll version 0.9.8.11 (or 0.9.8k release) which i knew were there and which i got from the standard Win32 SSL lib source - http://www.slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html

My IRC client uses those files for TLS so i doubt they are corrupted or wrong though :/

tcl/tk 8.4 is for windows 95 users, go to the download page and you'll see there's a "win95" button. tcl/tk 8.5 doesn't work on windows 95/98/me iirc
