I'm not sure if Bob managed to reply or not (I didn't see a message), so I will. (You can obviously ignore this if he did). DEP is a system designed to prevent programs either accidentally or deliberately doing things that they shouldn't. You can change the DEP settings in the "System" Control Panel, via the top "Settings" button of the "Advanced" tab, and then the "Data Execution Protocol" tab of the dialog that opens. Unfortunately, it's not the SpamBayes code itself that causes the problem here, but one of the libraries that SpamBayes uses. We're somewhat at the mercy of the developers of that library for a fix - we'll definitely include it when there is one. =Tony.Meyer -- Please always include the list (spambayes at python.org) in your replies (reply-all), and please don't send me personal mail about SpamBayes. http://www.massey.ac.nz/~tameyer/writing/reply_all.html explains this. _______________________________________________ SpamBayes@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/spambayes Check the FAQ before asking: http://spambayes.sf.net/faq.html
