Nick,

Please submit this to PST Web Support at 
http://support.pstnet.com/e%2Dprime/support/login.asp , they strive 
to respond to all requests in 24-48 hours.  Then please do us a favor 
and post back here with the result.

Also, you might try upgrading to EP2.0.8.73 (Pro), any registered 
user can download that for free from the PST web site.  Glad to see 
that you are still on XP, many of us have had trouble running EP2 
under Vista, and I have not gotten any confirmed reports yet on 
whether 2.0.8.73 or Win7 fix that.

Thanks,
-- David McFarlane, Professional Faultfinder
