FYI,
I feel silly posting this, but I figured that you would want to know. The
code below will send the renderer into never never land.  .  The Stop button
will not work.  You can still use the editor and closing PovRay will halt
the renderer

     rotate <0,0,360/clock>

I am assuming it is caused by a divide by zero that is not handled
correctly.  I fixed my scene but it took a while to figure out.

Thanks
Tom
