Does GW.exe ever ask you to send error report to ArenaNet when your game crashed?

not directly to Anet but ya with the general microsoft error report thing.

No no, on rare occassion it will ask you to send one to them, either Anet or NCsoft, dont rememembr, which one but i have gotten it at least twice.

Is it an error box that looks like the, "Windows has experienced a...." errors?
If so, it's legit. You type in what you were doing at the time of the crash (Or not) and send it in. I've sent in dozens over the years. It doesn't ask for your information or anything.

I've got 20k ping in Lions Arch (so does everyone else there) and after a long 2 or 3 minute pause I get kicked out of the game and get that error report screen.
w00t!
Yeah, I've been getting that in EoTN (the outpost) today. No problems in an instance, just in the outposts. Same dialog box. I just ignore it, as I'm sure that Anet knows that their servers are getting spiked.

I have never been hacked, and I am pretty sure I've never gotten a virus from it. It's legit.

The report says cannot find texture, cannot find frames and some other stuffs. I just needed to be sure so I don't have to be paranoid and changes my password again in a week's time. No conspiracy theory here.
