I got "freeze" from a Task Window. The mouse did move but the clock

*Verify outside the desktop - hit F12 - and that has just worked fine.
DO NOT run *Verify, *Checkmap or any other low level disc commands from
a TaskWindow. These commands do not multi-task properly in a task window
and can lock the machine until they have completed.
Also they will report spurious disc corruption if anything else wrote to
the disc when the were running. Always use the single tasking F12 prompt
at the bottom of the screen for these commands.
