Open up Regedit and go the the following Key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AeDebug

Change the Auto to 0 and it will prevent Dr. Watson from coming up
on these. Also, you can make Dr Watson not do so much by changing
the values under

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\DrWatson

especially the values with dump in them.
