1.4.0 is not that far away. XP is 2 versions behind, and 9+ years old (from release, not development). It is as insecure as an open door. I didn't say our release would not be compatible with XP (I'm 99% sure it will be), however we will not be testing on XP. I doubt "an awful" lot is really that many these days.. Windows 7 is *miles* ahead of XP and Vista in so many ways. Craig -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
