    Hello PondScum and welcome to AO,

    Please ignore the others, they are still gloating over the Northern War of Economic Aggression

    The phenomenon you have experienced is known as "chatroom booting" or "chatroom nuking", I suspect. I am not too sure how it works as I don't use them myself and would not tolerate them in the workplace, for security reasons.

    I am not sure why your machine misbehaved, I would need to be able to reproduce the incident to determine that it was not a freak, or coincidence.

    Try a Google search for the terms that I have quoted?
