I'd say yes. Lots of people (including me) have found it to cause crashes in Spambayes ever since manufacturers started including the setting and Microsoft started using it. What I was told is that the underlying problem is in Python, not in Spambayes itself. > I (thankfully, I think) don't even know what a DEP is or > why it would be in my BIOS (which I also pretty much ignore). Well, now that they're starting to sneak in "features" like DEP and hyperthreading, it's getting more dangerous to ignore the BIOS. > Skip > _______________________________________________ [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/spambayes Check the FAQ before asking: http://spambayes.sf.net/faq.html
