Vista Problems

Using Pegasus 4.41 and Vista Ultimate 32bit. Frequently
while opening messages Vista will error message that it
has stopped working and is looking for a solution. As
so often the case Vista never finds anything or calls
back. Restarting Pegasus will work but wonder is anyone
else experiencing this and if so is there a work around.
TIA

It's probably connected to processing formatted (HTML) messages, you will
have to wait for the upcoming version 4.5 for a possible solution - unless
you want to give BearHtml 4.6.3 (beta version!) a chance:

Be advised that for image downloads to work properly you will have to set
Tools | Options | Advanced settings => "Load ... WSOCK32.DLL" to "Always"
which will also change Pegasus Mail's dial-up handling ...

I ran Pegasus on Vista Ultimate 64 bit and never encountered a similar
problem.

Some Vista problems aren't obviously related to the program causing the
problem, they're hardware. Start by going to the manufacturer's site,
download and install the latest drivers for your video card, then if
the problem continues, boot on the Vista CD and select "memtest" to
look for a flaky memory chip.

See if that helps...
