Just to clear it's name, offending application is not Message-File
Viewer aka Greek Message Viewer (viewer.dll), it's a different plug-in
(presumably) with similar name (viewer32.dll).


It appears likely that viewer32 was the earlier version of viewer.dll,
when the version was 3.2. Very strange since I don't remember
renaming it, and I normally wouldn't bother to save old versions when
the author has come out with something newer, and when I had no reason
to think I'd ever need the earlier version. And without checking the
flashdrive, I don't ecven know which version was on it`and which was

There is no version 3.2, the latest one is 3.1. If you are unsure of the


You're right. I got 32 from "32-bit". I think it was viewer23.dll,
but whatever it was it was a 2 digit suffix.

source, d/w it from he

Perhaps you renamed it to indicate 32-bit. Note Eudora is 32-bit


Close. I misremembered it because of that.

application it can not load 64-bit version of viewer, or any other DLL.

But apparently it was two versions of the same dll that caused the
problem, even tholugh one had another file name. I didn't know that
could happen. (My eyes are watering too much for me to know if I've
made typos.)


There you go, that could cause problems. File names are irrelevant, plugin-
ids matter. 2 DLLs with the same Id - avoid.
So if you want to keep the old versions of DLLs inside the Plugins folder,
append to/rename their DLL extensions.

OldPlugin.dll.off - Correct.
OldPlugin123.dll - Avoid.


I''lll do it that way next t ime. BTW, eyes not watering so much
now. Went to the doctor and got an antibiotic, eyedrops and eye
ointment. I don't even know where I got sick but now typos are not
because of watering eyes but becasue i don't care.
