crashes and one case where it hung and I had to kill it
through the Task Manager.
The first time it died, I wasn't paying attention, so I'm not sure
what was the cause. The second time, though, I figured out the what
happened and can repeat it. If you scroll all the way to the bottom
of either the Web Page or Header filters lists, there is a strip
of grey below the very last entry. I was trying to unselect the
last filter entry and clicked a bit too low in the dark grey area
below the checkbox. That killed Proxomitron.
I managed to hang 4.3 twice in the same manner, so this may also
be repeatable. I was switching between configuration files and
had selected File/Load Config File and clicked to open the new Config
file I wanted to load. I hadn't noticed, but there was one active
connection, and I got the warning dialogue with the Retry, Kill
Connections options. It didn't seem like there was any good reason
for there to be an active connection, so I selected the kill
connections option. At that point it completely froze. It wasn't
taking up any CPU time, but there was nothing I could do other
than kill it through the Task Manager.
Other than these problems (which can easily be avoided) I haven't
run into anything else.

Same here. I can only see this strip in the header list, because i haven't that many filters there.

I saw this with earlier versions too (incl. 4.2). But like you i'm not too much concerned about it.

)The problem with the active connections with reloading a config file does (still) kill Proxo.

That only happens here if the log window is opened at the time. I haven't actually observed this in v4.3 yet.

But as mentioned above, it's easy to avoid the bug

SXGA+(1400x1050) display (ATI Rage Mobility 128). Video driver is
the one provided by IBM, Version M6.31.77-T01.
The grey area shows at the bottom of both filter windows when I
scroll down(I loaded Jor's Config, so there are quite a few entries).
They only show up immediately after I start Proxomitron. If I so much as touch
the edges of the filter window with the cursor as though I was going
to resize it, (without even dragging the window edge) the bottom of
the window snaps up and eliminates that grey area.
I think this is all triggered by the fact that I downloaded and tried Jor's
Filters. That Config file has [WinSizes] entries in it, and it looks like
when Proxomitron tries to conform to those values on my display it
ends up with those grey areas. If I delete the [WinSizes] entries I
no longer see any grey area.
I guess this is a pretty obscure error! Maybe not worth fixing.

I use pretty strange settings at times.
