Have noticed something else, too. I had LW working fine before I left home; have been on the road since early yesterday. Tried connecting from hotel, and LW froze like it used to and I thought I'd had another false alarm as far as fixing it went.

Deleted Preferences folder, restarted compuer and LW, and it's now connecting, BUT it took a few minutes. I gave it more time because the whole program did not freeze up so that it required a ctrl/alt/del shutdown.

FWIW to anyone else who's having the same crappy time I've had with Vista and LW.
