Randomly my application throws the following exception, and of course
it only happens in production and i can't reproduct it in Testing.
Does anyone know what causes the following exception:

No, that is what i don't understand, I am not doing any custom drawing
or GDI work. The only images in the application are on a Third Party
toolbar and on a few image buttons, the image buttons all contain 32
bit bitmaps.
