I have a spell manager program available in the user creations section that uses some background images in the menus. If a player is connected and tries to run the manager but does not have one of the background images cached already, they can experience a lockup that requires restarting MT.
See Paradox's report in this thread for details (his second post on this page):

Making sure the players have seen a token with the image so that it's cached for them, then moving it out of sight fixes the problem, but it'd be really nice if I didn't have to remove the offending image or force people to make sure it's cached.

You can always put a copy of the token on the Hidden layer on the current map and that will force them to receive it.

This should be fixed in b57
Dreaming of a 1.3 release
Re: [1.3.56] Uncached image in dialog can crash MT
Hooray!
Thanks, Trev.
And thank you Azh. For the short term, I've just included a warning in the readme and changed the Caster token image to the problematic one, to hopefully force caching. But if it's fixed in b57, I'll be a happy guy.
