Frank Saunders ...

Thanks for the suggestion.

I closed the Preview Pane from View | Layout and I did try again.

Results were the same. As 'combine and decode' came to an end it opened a
new window, and before I could 'save' it started searching for hyperlinks
and went non-responsive.

On my 'other' machine the Preview Pane is open and it still works.

Thanks again Frank.

Take care.

Good Day ...

This is a follow-up to my earlier posts relating to the fact that I can
not 'combine & decode' binaries in Outlook Express since I have updated
to IE7.

On my 'mirror' machine ... everything identical to the machine that is
having the 'combine & decode' problem except mirror does not have IE7,
still on the latest patch release of IE6 ... I chose a newsgroup, copied
all files to a temp folder in my Local Folders area. The file had 98
rar files plus PAR files. When combining and decoding, I selected a
group of 8 rar files at a time, combined and decoded, and then saved to
'decoded' temp area on my hard drive. All went very well, and very
fast. Total size = 1.6gb; test was a success.

On my 'problem' machine, I tried the same test. Not able to complete a
group of rar files ... Outlook Express started searching for '
hyperlinks' and became non-responsive; test failed.

Test results:

Failu machine with Outlook Express and IE7
Success: machine with Outlook Express and IE6

Any suggestions?

Thanks for your time, consideration, and help.
Take care.
Jim Hughes

That could be caused if it is a format that OE does not understand, like
yEnc.
