I'm also using Mathematica 3.0 for Win95, and I got the same thing.
Except on mine, the kernel didn't bomb until I attempted to force it
to terminate (hit alt-f4 on kernel window). It was taking forever to
complete, so that's why I terminated it.
Here is the dump from Norton Crashguard:
(You'll notice this isn't the first time the kernel has bombed in this
way).
------------
The program 'Mathematica Kernel' caused the error: Integer divide by
zero.
MATHKERNEL.EXE caused fault #c0000094 in MATHDLL.DLL at address
014f:0072843e
To date, 21 fatal errors have been recorded in this program. This
particular error was recorded 1 times.
