Unfortunately, the bug has been closed as 'won't fix'. In other words, Windows 7 has a bug that is a regression, causes a software product to fail but MS won't fix it - arrogant to say the least. For those who have been arguing that Win7 is running too fast, this is another bit of evidence. I am advising my customers to tread carefully - who knows what else MS has broken.
For me, this means I either have to upgrade to new mail/news clients to use Win7, or I have to go back to XP.
Finally - a question for Microsoft: why bother with a beta at all if regressions like this do not get fixed.
Damn!

Thats lame. It was working on the previous beta release from what I read. Maybe they'll fix it in a patch?
On the bright side, tortoise is planning on releasing 64 bit support. So it might be a non issue soon enough.
