Hi everyone,

I’m one of the lucky ones that has a startup issue. After it seems to initialize the fonts correctly its gets stuck building the toolbars and probably trying to load the startup page. I cannot access flash to disable the startup page. This all happened after I had to do a force quit. I run Win2k. Anyone experience something similar?
