Hmm, I see.  But XnView doesn't change its icon, AFAICS.  So, yes, it's
somewhat strange.

Umm, I just had a crash when I wanted to verify it ;-)

However, before that I viewed hundreds of photos today without problems,
so it is definitely pretty stable now and I can't reproduce crashes at
will.

I'll use this revision for a few more days and we'll see how it
behaves.  I'll report back when I experience any problems.

Thanks and greetings
