Re: 5.5.24 windows client crashes when I type an invalid query

[Jeff Sadowski]

Ctrl-C does nothing. Taskmanager comes up but shows no processes at all. I can alt-tab and close down my other programs. Moving mouse causeses morse code sounds. My work laptop I am running on isn't bad. The Linux version has never had this issue. Say I do a simple thing like so.
mysql>select * from nonexistent_database;
It freezes up. Happens on coworkers computer as well. A much slower much less ram linux box is a million times faster. Maybe it is windows 7 specific? I'll try it on xp and vista later.
