Hi,

Thank you for the great package. I found IEview very useful on my
XP installations. (Japanese versions of XP and FireFox.)

Lately, I installed Vista Ultimate 64 bit (Japanese version) on another PC
and installed firefox 3.0.1.
Then I installed the latest version of IE view available on Aug 22 (JST).

Unfortunately, something is wrong with IE View under Visa 64 bit.
"View this page in IE" menu doesn't appear on the tab menu.
(Always view this page in IE in Tools menu DOES appear.)
This was puzzling since such a menu entry does appear under Win/XP
and is very useful.

Not only this, after IE View got loaded, firefox doesn't restart automatically after it was instructed to do so because of new add-on installation, etc..
If it is insructed to reboot, it certainly ends by closing all the windows, etc., but it doesn't come back(!). 

So I had to remove IE view, then automatic reboot works as expected.

I suspect Vista "64 bit" version is causing the problem, but who knows?

Again, thank you for the great package.

I just wanted to report a possibly unknown problem. 

TIA
