RE: Windows XP SP2 error

You'll almost certainly find this is an 'update Amaya' situation.
However bad M$ are, they have made vast improvements to their Mac ripoff
with XP, but this has brought with it far tighter standards control.
The great MM Dreamweaver (and  M$'s Frontpage) are both far more stable than
any Amaya I've ever seen, and they both behave very nicely under XP.

To Windows or to Amaya? Do Microsoft let you downgrade, because that is 
the most immediate solution? I would be reporting your error to 
Microsoft, and giving the Amaya team as a contact, for they may be able 
to add to your bug report, and show the code in question which is now 
failing.

I would hope the Amaya team place a higher priority on actual bugfixes 
and extensions than fooling around with a proven flaky operating system. 
At any rate, how do we know MS haven't deliberately sabotaged their 
operating system to promote sales of their web authoring solution? There 
certainly is precedent (Windows on DR DOS was broken to promote MS DOS.)
