You're not the first one to react so after a first try at looking inside the SYSTEM OBJECT,
but take care - this is simply an
illusion you got. Your system is not freezed. It is working hard to look in the inside
of the SYSTEM OBJECT itself. This is a HUGE
OBJECT and it takes time and a lot of memory available for your system to success at
the task.
I just tried it on my Pentium 166 with most of the 64Megs RAM not available since it
was used by other apps and here is what I got
after a couple of minuts to wait after it...
