Cron usually indicates *nix systems.  In that case, a segmentation
violation -is- an immediate and unceremonious end to the process, and the
question is oxymoronic.

If they're on Windows and referring to some other scheduler erroneously
as "cron", there probably is not a way to automatically bypass the error
box showing the crash fault details, short of a desktop monitoring/macro
program that can detect the window and press the button.  Pressing the
button, easy--I can name two programs off the top of my head that can do
that.  Monitoring for a precise sort of window to pop up, not easy--I know
of nothing at all that's suited to the task.
