Hi Dave,

Thanks for replying so swiftly - it's difficult knowing where to ask...

It's over 10 years since I used OS/2 and it's been a nightmare trying to 
get it installed, but I seem to have managed by hook or by crook.
I'm using Warp CP2 on several old ThinkPads.

I've used chkdll32 on firefox.exe and xul.dll and get a Fontconfig error

Cannot load default config file

If I run it from the command line it stops immediately. If started from 
a program object in its folder, the icon becomes striped for maybe a 
minute. I hear some disk activity, but the system activity monitor is 
almost at the bottom
