Hi Don

I just tried opening the test jpg and received the following
message:

"Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We
are sorry for the inconvenience."

Only the message ... no shutdown ... no crash. I also use Win
Pro. Could the problem be OS dependent?

Yes, of course.
But closing a program is indeed an inconvenience, isn't it?

I just want to sharpen your attention, and don't fall for hoaxes.
Do NOT believe that such "inconvenience" will be solved with
Microsoft's current update, as they make believe.

Regards
Guido
