High Arlene, 
The problem could be a corrupted file that's causing Winamp to crash like that.
I had the same thing happen to me.
Winamp does not like home made CD's either.
That will also cause Winamp to crash too as well.
I guess Winamp is looking for alvim and artist information in their data base.
If the CD doesn't have it, that will disable Winamp and cause it to freeze up.
I hope I was able to help you all with this problem.
I guess it is one of those bugs that Myself hasn't address yet.
My best regards.
  John.

    Subject: Getting album art for CD's ripped with Winamp Pro 5 . 5 7 2


    Hi,

     

    Donald 'Dj' Bowen here from Music for Sight.  I've joined the 
winamp4theblind list at freelists to hopefully enhance my knowledge of winamp.  
I use Window Eyes 7.11 and the Winamp script, version 2.8.1 on an XP SP3 Media 
Center Edition pc with 3GB RAM,  a couple 1TB hard drives and a couple 500GB 
USB hard drives. 

     

    I have several questions and will start with album art.  When I rip a CD 
with WMP v.10 I get the album art files.  Not so with Winamp.  Two things were 
suggested on another list.  One being wimamp doesn't do album art.  The other 
being why would a blind guy want album art.  The first is probably true though 
I'm hoping someone will know of a workaround.  As for the second, they make a 
very cool bunch of jpeg's for the screen saver slide show that my visitors 
enjoy.

     

     Your friend in tunes,
