Hmm, you are opening 1GB files with word??? Do you really do that? I
never heard that anyone was successful with such large files in
MS-Office applications. Congratulations! Can you do it with Windows
without crashes?

Not really but it works better if certain DLLs that ship with IE6 are
installed. I use method 3 from Frank's Corner
(http://frankscorner.org/modules.php?op=modload&name=Sections&file=index&req=viewarticle&artid=49&page=1)
which implies some DllOverrides.
