I did not say that it was deliberate although they made some change in the application that triggered the problem. The problem has existed since the release after 9.0.2 and to my knowledge, they have not fixed it so that the current release doesn't crash WindowsXP. They probably think it is not their problem to fix and think that either Microsoft or Sun (now Oracle) should fix it. Clint -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
