Apparently CT still writes the required files and your cabrillo(.log) will be 
intact. I know, first hand, Ken is aware of the bug. To get the program to 
close click on 'Don't Send' in the microsoft error box.

  In CQ WW and ARRL SS CW, I used CTWin V.10/01.010 for logging.  After
  the contest I put "writelog" in the call sign blank, pushed "enter" and
  the various logs parts were prepared.  In both the ARRL 10 meter and
  ARRL 160 meter contests I also used the same program but when I put in
  "writelog" at the end and pushed "enter", the program froze.  I received
  a message from CT,WIN.EXE that the program has encountered a problem and
  must close down and asked if I wanted tos end a message to Microsoft.
  At that point, the program was frozen.  To get out, I had to hit
  ControlAlternateDelete.  It then went to the Windows Task Manger.  I hit
  End Task and got the message "Windows cannot end this program".  I hit
  End Now and End Task again and managed to close the program.  

  I repeated this process several times and had the same results each
  time. I did enter a number of individual commands, e.g. "Writedup",
  "writesum", etc and the program had no problem executing these commands.
  Same for AltX and AltQ.

  I was using the program on Windows XP with SP2 on a Orion.  I was
  connected to Telnet and had the Orion frequency on the program.

  Any ideas what is going on and how to fix it?  Thanks
