I found the program you are talking about.  It is called Franke.387.  
It emulates a 387 very well... utill you run Windows.  They dont get 
along. AT ALL.  Windows knows that it isn't the chip, and freezes.

I tried running it while in Windows, but got the message System 
Integrity Violated, Close up and exit.

All in all, very nasty.
