Windows has an issue that has caused serious data loss for some people. It gives the program not responding when in fact the program is working in the background. -- Rick Power is the ultimate aphrodisiac, and The elderly are useless eaters Dr. Henry Kissinger v5.4.8 on Windows 6.2 Build 9200 Using all POP accounts I download all images Current beta is 5.4.8.0 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Isn't this the list for reporting problems experienced with TB, even comparatively trivial ones? I started this thread originally to determione whether the problem is unique to my PC setup or if it is more general. It appears now that it is more general and I will do some more experimenting and research before putting in a bug report. Maybe it is something that the TB developers can quite easily fix. -- Best regards, Roger :flag-SouthAfrica: The Bat! v5.3.8.4 (BETA) POP3, on Windows 7, version 6 1, build 7601 and Service Pack 1 Current beta is 5.4.8.0 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
