Are you using Wing IDE 2.1 or the 'immediately if appear unhandled' 
exception mode in 3.0 here?  Wing IDE 3.0 handles exceptions differently 
by default and shouldn't stop in these cases.

If you are using Wing 2.1, you can select "Ignore this exception 
location" in the Exceptions tool and continue debugging.  This choice is 
remembered in your project.

You can also change Wing to report exceptions only if they actually lead 
to program termination with the Debugger / Exceptions / Report 
Exceptions preference -- set it to At Process Termination.

There are details as to why Wing does this here:

Hope that helps.
