You don't mention your version of Windowmaker, but if it's 0.20.0 or
earlier, there is a time-wrap bug with a high chance of freezing the
system every 60 days or so. I think Nov 11 or thereabouts is one of
those days. Previous one in September killed hundreds of people!

The latest versions have it fixed.
