Spent most of the day rendering the same scene over and over again, 1024x768, (large mirror) reflection, raytraced, AO, IBL. Saw no results, and "Poser not responding" in task manager. Hard re-booted several times.

Then thought "self, why don't you just let it do its thing". Turns out that "Poser not responding" meant it was doing intense number crunching and needed time to create the solution. Yes the same render (with periodic updated minor tweaks on P4 3.2 gHz, 2.5gB RAM while surfing the net on different system ;) took a good 45 minutes each time in my case. The point is that maybe a hang is not a hang at all....
