Ok, in the hope to correct the problem, and expecting that viruses were the primary reason of it, I have re-installed Windows-xp. Right now there is nothing else but the the OS and the libraries you have placed for download at: http://www.gimp.org/~tml/gimp/win32/downloads.html My first intention was to run /bin/gtk-demo.exe, but I get an error message saying "This application has failed to start because iconv.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix the proble." I checked for the existance of this file, but it does not exist in my system. Perhaps this is a file that was, for some reason, left out. If this is a bug, I am glad to be able to help. On the other hand, where would you suggest I get this files from? I know that I could do a search on the net, and I did, but I don't want to compromise the process of getting GTK+ to work in my system. Thanks in advance Tor, you have been very helpful and willing through out my GTK+ odessi, for that I am very thankful to you . > jalkadir@xxxxxxxxxx writes: > > I did as you suggested.
