After I can reproduce the hit now I could investigate it. What always is LONG READ from illegal address "015b2996 : *4a93 tst.l (a3)". I need to play until highscore has changed. Then press ESC. Now the WormWars highscore has changed warning requester appear with the hit. Each time the requester pop up the hit happens.

Without MCP running = no hit. So I tried to find the MCP function/patch that is responsible. After some time I found the strange behaviour. MCP patch AssignWedge and Automount need to be disabled = no hit. If one of the both is active = hit. Because this is strange (at least to me) I started SnoopDOS. The only thing happens when the reqeuster pop up is this:

Code:

Count Process Name   Action     Target Name           Options  Res.
----- ------------   ------     -----------           -------  ----
1     WormWars       FindPort   ReqAttack Warp Core            Fail

I have no ReqAttack running/installed and the fail should be harmless. However, normaly I don`t get hits when reqeuster appear. So you maybe have a look into WormWars source if there is something that can conflict with mcp.
