Hi Glenn,
My symptoms are quite different from yours. My WPS does not freeze on start up. However, what I'm worried about is that my memory may be going bad or some other piece of hardware. These problems perhaps started happening when I installed WPSWizard, but I won't start blaming it until there is some corroboration with others here. The WPS freezing is really annoying. I used to be able to have my system up for 21 days or more, but the WPS freeze is happening every 3 to 7 days.
There is also another possibility that shared memory may be exhausting that's causing the firefox Trap E problem. I have sunbird, thunderbird and firefox running nearly all the time. Firefox seems to eat up shared memory after a while.
I hope other people have seen this or suggesting to what to do next.

Hi,
I have not seen TRAP screens, but my WPS also freezes after a reboot (hardware is 7 months old).
If I keep the SHIFT key pressed when the graphical screen first appears, which usually prevents startup programs to get started, I get here the XWorkPlace panic box (because of the integration of xworkplace into ecomstation). Then I click on "run xfix", wait a little while, sometimes I see if there are no registry entries to be cleaned, then save the INI files again, and quit xfix. The WPS then restarts, and everything works well (almost... I have found RC4 to be more unstable than eCS1.2, maybe because of ACPI).
Please tell me if following this process helps you. I feared that my problems happen because of some installed third-party software (and that I would get the "we cant help you if you are the only one with this problem") but if you experience the same issues, then it may be a more general problem that would have to be solved by SSI, because the above method is something that should really be avoided when using eCS on a daily basis.
