Only twice? There's been days when I had to restart Delphi 7 half a dozen times
because of the very problem you are describing. So far, I've never had to do it
with D2005 or D2006. If one were to extrapolate their personal experience into
universal truth, one could just as easily conclude that there has actually been
a great improvement in this respect.

I'm slightly confused about why you rebooted your system instead of simply
killing Delphi from the task manager, as well as the on-the-loose application
being debugged. What operating system are you using, Windows 3.0?
