Hi Ed,
OK, let me go into details:
I have this trouble on at least *2* of my 3 PCs.

On the Win2k PC I get the error message "Rebel12.exe causes problems and will be
executed", s.th. like a DrWatson message. Then I can move, start background
analyis etc but Rebel does not respond in any way, even when in opening book. Of
course all this happens under ChessPartner 5.3.0.39

The other comp has Win XP home and s.th. similar happens, except that I don't
get the error message.
In both cases the book moves window gets empty after selecting 40/120'+60'
(before it shows all book moves.

Now it is your turn again I think. They are fresh update installations.
Any chances to get a logfile or so which might contain the reason for this bug?
