Testing pgAdmin III v1.6.3 rev: 5941M on Win XP (SP2), hosts are PG 8.1.8 on Debian Sarge and PG 8.2.1 on Debian Etch.

The new Windows binary I have got from Dave does not crash any more. The 
problem at had seems fixed. :)

I noticed, however, that another issue mentioned in my report is still 
there. Referring to what Laurent ROCHE posted initially on Tue, 9 Jan 
2007: "Still no text for error messages only numbers for 1.6.2 (aka the 
Saga continues)". I will post a reply to that thread.
