Dreamweaver doesn't crash, it encounters a fatal exception. I always think this would work very well as a movie euphemism for being killed; you can just imagine Schwarzenegger saying "He encountered a fatal exception."

Oh, most of the software I write encounters a fatal exception from time to time. It's so much more elegant than it commiting an error don't you think?
