After installing this program (which does the panoramic job very nicely), I am no longer able to select or play Quicktime Movies on my PC because Windows Live Photo Gallery is hogging a resource known as "WLQuickTimeControl", taking up 50% of my CPU's bandwidth and running about 20 megs of memory...doing what? I have no idea and there is no "Options" within WLPG to make this thing stop whatever it's doing. As always with MS, unbelievably bad writing/testing. You don't see this level of bad programming from anything that Yahoo! or Google produces. Maybe MS should sell itself to Yahoo! instead of the other way around.
