I've killed all the Wanamingo's including the Queen and her eggs. I
have the excavator chip too.

I started to wipe out Frog's Men in the Wanamingo Mine, but after
killing about 6 or 8 of them I tried to cross the floor to the metal
doors and I hear an explosion, then the program crashes! I tried this
4 times and it always happens. Anybody else have this bug? Is there
any way around it? Is it necessary to search thru the Wanamingo mine
section, or should I just blow it off? I already have a Bozar and
Mini-gun so if more guns are all that's there is to be gained I might
as well skip this section.

BTW, is there any good reason to buy this mine?

Regards

Ed

the area is trapped with landmine

it happens to me too,when i tried to plant bombs onto the thieving kids in
Den.
IMOH it is due to resource shortage
try shutting down useless program except systray and explorer,and restart
the game
see if that helps

if you cleared it out you can sell it to mayor for 2500
not really worthy

Why would you keep systray running?

sure there is. If you don't want it to run at all, go into the registry and
remove it from
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>Software>Microsoft>CurrentVersion>Windows>Run or if you
just want to kill it for the time being, CTRL-ALT-DEL and kill it from
there, tho you might have to do that a couple of times for it to stop. As I
understand it, systray is a power monitoring program for laptops, but I
haven't verified that for myself.

humm strange,since my systray is a "holder" of subprogram icons (like the
little NAV icon in the bottom right of ur screen)
if systray shuts down,then there'll be no icon except the speaker.
but strange thing is even you use CTRL-ALT-DEL to shut it down,it reopen
itself.
maybe different language version,different stuffs are there...
btw, msconfig can also shut down programs.

OK, I stand corrected, I just tried killing it on my laptop (Running
WindowsME) and it took Volume Control, PCMCIA, and Power icoms with it.
Hmm...just never tried it on a laptop before...
