Ted, I did not check that the XP machine was patched. I recall there being some GDI patches along the way. We are still shipping the 9.0.0.3504 runtimes (SP1). My excuse: It's a little painful to get the runtimes to upgrade in place on those running the current version. It is daunting to think of 5,500+ client sites with various configurations and user rights.
