Ok.

Ok. So FD_ACCEPT is not the fix. Good, I didn't think it would be.

Ok. I'm thinking of just sticking a minimal wait in there to protect
against absolute runaway, but that should be enough I think.

I don't *think* it should be a bug with your version, it doesn't look
like it. but if you're not on the latest service pack, that's certainly
possible. Please update to latest servicepack + updates from Windows
Update / WSUS, and let me know if the problem persists.
Meanwhile, I'll try to cook up a patch.
