That sounds very much like a bug that was fixed a while back, relating to setting up the save path when the dialogue was opened. Hi Steve, Yes, I am sure; I wouldn't have been able to get the r version number otherwise... Maybe it makes a difference which site I am saving from? Maybe. Something else to try: save the first page to the root of your hard disc (to keep the path short), then try to save a second page. Does that still crash? Also, could you put this on the bug tracker with a zipped copy of the full logfile? Unless someone else looks into it, it will be a couple of weeks before I have the time to do it and I'll forget otherwise. Well, I downloaded another new one, r13506, and that doesn't do it. The only thing that has changed is that I re-booted VA_RPC, so it seems to be a false alarm. Sorry. But I am sure it was crashing the same way as the one of about 6 months old, which is the one I use permanently now, because new ones still dont do f/8 to load the page when it is in frames. They only f8-load a fixed page from a frame, and not the page the mouse has just been clicked on. So that's why I am still using one of 6 - 8 months old. So it is possible that remnants of the 6-month old version which crashed repeatedly (and was re-run repeatedly) were interferring with the newly downloaded new one. I crashed the new version 8 times before writing. But, as I say, the new version is working fine wrt saving (but still not wrt f/8-ing in frames). So, apologies again, I should have re-booted the 'pooter between versions. -- Cheers Roger Today is yesterdays tomorrow and it's already gone
