Unless the problem is with my windows installation. The principle

Everything MS makes corrupts too easily. I can't run MSIE (or
Netcaptor, for that matter) either; but who cares? I use Firefox
and Opera w/ not problems.

I'll give it a try. But I was at the M$ website a while ago and
in order to download a service pack I have to use their own pet
