[ct-user] "writelog" command freezes CTWin

In CQ WW and ARRL SS CW, I used CTWin V.10/01.010 for logging.  After
the contest I put "writelog" in the call sign blank, pushed "enter" and
the various logs parts were prepared.  In both the ARRL 10 meter and
ARRL 160 meter contests I also used the same program but when I put in
"writelog" at the end and pushed "enter", the program froze.  I received
a message from CT,WIN.EXE that the program has encountered a problem and
must close down and asked if I wanted tos end a message to Microsoft.
At that point, the program was frozen.  To get out, I had to hit
ControlAlternateDelete.  It then went to the Windows Task Manger.  I hit
End Task and got the message "Windows cannot end this program".  I hit
End Now and End Task again and managed to close the program.  

I repeated this process several times and had the same results each
time. I did enter a number of individual commands, e.g. "Writedup",
"writesum", etc and the program had no problem executing these commands.
Same for AltX and AltQ.

I was using the program on Windows XP with SP2 on a Orion.  I was
connected to Telnet and had the Orion frequency on the program.

Any ideas what is going on and how to fix it?  Thanks
