Right, I have managed to get the issue to repeat.

Use an F8 search to look for all QSOs with IOTA OC001.  Because DX4Win knows
that there is only one island name under that group, it automatically fills
in the Iota island field.  Then do a fresh F8 search for anybody you know is
in your log, preferably not on OC-001.  On mine, it fails to find any QSOs.
I looked for my uncle with whom I have had dozens of QSOs.  I had to restart
DX4Win to get out of the 'No matching QSO' loop.

I hope that makes sense.  It seems that the new feature in version 9 whereby
it completes the Island Name field is causing a problem in subsequent F8
searches.
