I am a little surprised, as I sometimes receive files by email that are even bigger. Usually PowerPoint presentations, as my dear friends don't understand the idea of FTP... Anyway, the size didn't make TB - or your system for that matter - crash. There was probably some bad HTML code in there, and this needs to be analysed by Rit. Bad code can be rejected or whatever, but it mustn't make TB crash. Due to the size of the file and the speed of my dial-up connection, however, I cannot volunteer to even take a look at it or help you forward it to Ritlabs. :-( > The Bat! tried, but it froze with all kinds of warning sounds, and > when I finally managed to Close the Client, I got a nice "Illegal > Operation Message" from Windows.

What format is that in? If it is a scanned article in TIF or PNG format, there should be no problem. > Marck, Leif, Allie--please excuse me for digressing at such length > from the subject. I think an email making your whole system crash when you use TB to try and read it, is very much on-topic. -- Cheers, Thomas. Moderator der deutschen The Bat! Beginner Liste.
