True, but there is something special about the RUN command that provokes this. I have other applications that create hidden windows, and they have no problem on Vista Beta 2. And from vbscript, I can launch programs with hidden windows, and they have no problem. I'll of course be reporting the problem to Microsoft as well, since nothing the program does should cause a crash. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
