I'm using NT4/sp3 single processor with ie4.01 installed and it trashed me so bad that NT blue screened on boot-up. Fatal error with Windows Logon Process. Needless to say couldn't even uninstall the update. Tried to use NT repair and update but the only way to get back up was a completely fresh install of NT. Also had the Wininet.dll problem.... a reboot took care of it for me. John

You were right on re 6.0 being the problem, Sean. Though Gary said no problem with it if msie was installed, two of us running dual processors crashed even with msie. good to keep those old versions around eh :) doesn't sound fun. further evidence of a poor executed model for .dll's. Why can't the new dll check the registry and see if IE 4.0 is loaded and emit a readable error message? Maybe 5 lines of code? Anyway. I skip the normal rant on MS vs. unix models for application installation. My dual CPU system which had been giving me fits is finally right. 3 weeks now not one glitch. ended up having a processor overheat and get damaged when my fan died. It was BSOD ing twice a day for month as a systemtically tracked it down. arg... I don't know how it relates to MFC but I use mulitple inheritance once and while in C++, not as part of my regular arsenal. Hardcore Smalltalk I know programmers swear by it though. recursion, template classes and single inherence get the job done most of the time for me. I haven't used a Virtual Function in my real code in years. Sean
