I have MikTeX still installed and I downloaded 
context/install/mswincontext.zip (6.12.04) as well (I compile ConTeXt 
sources with "F7" within scite).

The latter started to behave strange just "in the middle of the black". 
I have a document with 30 sites and about 3MB (some high resolution 
images) which worked just fine until some point. After 10 minutes 
pdfeTeX started crashing (and asking if the problem should be reported 
to Microsoft).

If I compile the same document under MikTeX, it works just fine (except 
that I can't use \setupbodyfont[phv,ss,14.4pt] command). If I compile 
the document in some other directory (with no images) it works as well.

Even more strange: after removing font definitions (both 
\setupbodyfont[phv,ss,14.4pt] and
\usetypescript[adobekb][texnansi]
\usetypescript[times][texnansi]
\setupbodyfont[times,ss]
cause problems) I get some strange error reports (see below), which I 
have to skip with some unusual combinations of Ctrl-C and quit, but the 
file compiles without a crash.

The problem was most probably caused by PNG images, exported from MS 
PowerPoint slides, an example is on 
http://pub.mojca.org/mailinglists/context/alpha.png.

They look just fine in any viewer, but as soon as I remove them, 
everything works perfect again.

It looks like a very strange bug. Any ideas?

Mojca

I forwarded your mail to the pdftex dev list
