Mathematica randomly stopping in M5.2 for Solaris

I am running a program in Mathematica 5.2 on Solaris 8 that, contrary to my 
intention, randomly stops.  I don't seem to get the problem when I run the 
program in Mathematica 5.1 on Mac OSX (but I haven't tested extensively)

How do I know it's random?  Because the program has a long Do loop that 
takes about an hour to solve for each loop, and sometimes the program will 
get through all 10 loops, sometimes only through 7, and sometimes it will 
stop on the first one.

Any insights welcome. Thanks!
