* i'm trying to figure out what this feature is called because i never realized it was there in the first place.
* very infrequently, i will find my parallels VM (4.0 running winXP on mac OSX leopard) frozen with nothing to do but to force quit it.
* the last three or four times this happened ( i guess since i upgraded to 4.0) i had assumed that the VM would be restarting and anything i was working on (usually in outlook hooked to exchange server) would be lost.
* what ends up happening instead is that VM 'resumes' (i usually associate this term with explicitly 'suspended' VMs) from where it left off.
* I am guessing what happens is that the VM automatically saves state when an unrecoverable error is detected.
* I'd like to know more about this feature since it implies that Parallels 4.0 now has more robust features than i thought and i can fret less whenever trying to revive a hung session and simply kill it.
