okay thanks to everybody for all their help..   I have managed to
"traceback" the bug to a seemingly harmless line of code:

sprintf( bob, "Active Tank: %s", player1->GetName() );

bob is initialized like this:

char *bob = new char[80];

and Player1->GetName() returns "Sahab" whether its on my computer or
someone elses (via a fprintf(stderr) call to check the debugging info
the procedure Player1->GetName() works returning Sahab...).   So why
would this line of code be so offensive on other computers, but not my
own???
