Crashlog

Just after my first fresh installation of 1.9.3 I right-clicked the tray icon and tried to open the preferences, which generated my first workrave unexpected crash. Repeatable for preferences, but also rest break, exercises etc. If let to just run then the timers seem to work and I do get a micro-break window popping up after 3 minutes of activity, but after about 15 seconds of the pop-up an unexpected crash also occurs. Repeated twice.

This is on a stable Windows XP SP3 machine that is not overclocked and runs a host of other software trouble free.

Thank for looking into this, I'm really interested in the Network mode, which workpace still doesn't offer.

Workrave 1.9.3 appears to crash frequently for some users. I believe the latest snapshot fixes these problems. Could you please install:

http://snapshots.workrave.org/20110216/workrave-win32-v1_9_3-54-g82aa5dce5c-20110216-installer.exe

and let us know if this build fixes the crashes. Thanks.
