I have too seen this problem on a new machine, although first showed up with TightVNC, so I uninstalled and used 3.3.3r9 I always used before, but that occasionally did it too (mainly after a reboot before logging on). Memory exception trying to access byte 0 of memory or something... I put it down to a peculiarity with the display driver in the end (I still have the problem after changing drivers though)...
There's one other machine that crashed in the same way with TightVNC after 'upgrading' from WinVNC 3.3.3r9, but no repeat of the problem. Both were running NT 4 server. I have used VNC (and upgraded most to TightVNC now with a nice little Kix script that does it all unattended) with no problems. So there's something odd happening somewhere...
