Thanks a lot, I've just been annoyed by the very same problem today,
and I was unable to figure what was happening.

The strange thing is that I've moved POV-Ray source files a thousand
times before, without causing such hassle.  The computer I'm using
(at work) is running Windows XP SP2, and I'm wondering if some
recent automatic update/patch isn't turning a minor problem
into a critical one...

It's Windows itself that closes POV-Ray by authority, and it says
that it happens in module cmedit.dll, so it's rather a problem
with CodeMax (and Windows, as I stated just before).

However, I think it should be fixed (if possible) on POV-Ray's side, or
it might become a support pain...

Fabien.
