Strange server crash problem

I'm not certain if this is a PHP problem per se, but as the problem manifests 
itself in PHP I'll give it a go.

I've a PHP-based CMS for a site that I am maintaining.  It's a large site with 
a few thousand pages.  Most of them work fine.  However, twice now we've run 
into a problem where a specific page will exhibit very odd behavior.

When building the page, the script will seemingly terminate after it outputs 
about 4 KB of data.  It's not exactly 4 KB, but it's always about 4 KB of 
data.  If I add debugging information to the page, it will still stop at 
about 4 KB of data, which is then less "real" output.

The damned thing is, the 4KB mark is reached while outputting the left-side 
navigation bar.  The way the CMS is structured (I didn't write it), that 
happens before any page-specific content is even loaded.  There shouldn't be 
anything different about the code there yet.  

I've been unable to figure out why it happens.  Any idea what to check?  I'm 
stumped.

The server itself is (get this) a Windows/IIS box running PHP 4.0.6 (yes, 
really) and MS SQL server via ODBC.  I unfortunately do not have direct 
access to the box, so I can't check server logs myself.

"If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of 
exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an idea, 
which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps it to 
himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the possession 
of every one, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of it."  -- Thomas
