"database style for controlling MIME type for programs"? WTF does that mean? "it is static"? Like hell. And to recap: You poke around in the registry and delete things. You delete DLLs off the system that you don't understand. And then you blame Microsoft when the system appears unstable. Do you hit yourself in the head with a hammer then complain about headaches? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Creed - 7M3 - Live" To: Sent: Friday, August 17, 2001 11:19 PM Subject: Re: Multi-lingual signs...
