Better not say that too loud or it'll hear me

What version of Windows are you running? I had the same problem on Win98, but never with Win95 or ME/XP.

At the moment XP. From what I see I'm not sure how well WinXP and VS6 like each other - but I might be wrong.

I've never had any problems - I've been using that combination for over a year

Nope. Try touching your left ear-lobe with your right big toe just as you hit the compile button, at the same time as putting your left hand on your head.

Well I had a bit of trouble on the left-small-toe on computer reset button while holding ear-to-network-switch while triple-left-clicking on Format, with left-thumb-on-CD-tray button, but the rest was easy...

No, but that's how I closed VC each time it died. And I'm perfectly serious.

I had a similar problem at one point, the compilation would hang on specific files. It wouldn't really "hang", though, it would just take a ridiculously long time to compile (like, 30 minutes for one file.)
It turns out the optimizer didn't like some of our code. I couldn't really blame it on the optimizer, though, since this particular source file was thousands of lines long and was really pretty crappily coded. The quick fix was to turn off optimization, the long-term fix was to fix the code.

Well it seems to be working now - I admit I never waited 30 minutes, but for a test I even tried a single line app - it still hung. But now it seems to be working.
