I installed Squeak for the first time on that machine, like on many
other WindowsXP machines, even in far more restricted environments,
and never had this kind of problem before. Direct Drag&Drop does not
help. On Drag&Drop the Windows FileChooser pops up, but not on the
directory the dropped image lives in, but on the last directory that
was chosen with this Dialog?! Selecting an image with it results in
the same error message...
Anyway I can play with the trunk image using the linux machine now
(once I get the updates via the flaky campground wifi :} ).

Regards,
 Alex
