No. It was never finished. This story is the reason I no longer read WIPs. (You can see my reasoning. This cliffhanger was so painful. I thought about it for months afterward.) As I periodically do, I sent her an email recently telling her I was thinking about the story. I'm still hoping she'll find her way to completing it. I haven't heard back. Some time ago she told me she has a complete outline but who knows what happened in the interim? She actually took the chapters down at one point and put them back up when she began working on the fic again. I don't know what happened.
But you never know. For the 20th anniversary, Syntax6 came back and finished "Original Sin," and that was after five years away from the fandom. It could still happen.
You are not alone in feeling the resolution of "Dreamcatcher" was unsatisfying. It was, however, atmospheric and scary, with Mulder and Scully stuck on the ice, and the last minute rescue. The symbolism of the dreamcatcher worked for me, too.
