I know this error can occur if you enter a channel with Warcraft III characters in it, especially the ones with @Lordaeron (one of the WC3 realms) at the end of their username. Someone told me it was because Diablo II doesn't handle their long usernames very well and somewhere down the line a pointer gets overwritten and wham! Access Violation because the mangled pointer points to where it shouldn't.
However, the other day I logged in and landed in the usual public D2 channel, only to crash with an Access Violation. Either a WC3 character had found their way into that channel, or something else was up. Either way, I haven't gone back since. (Been too busy modding Baldur's Gate I and beta-testing the Near Infinity editor. :D )
