David,

>1. Is this a new bug, or has it existed in Win32Lib for a while?

I'm using 0.44e, & I have noticed problems while online, but not with fonts.
I just stopped running Euphoria/Win32Lib programs while I was online,
without thinking any more about it.  What I noticed was that on opening an
application, stuff in other open windows would flicker on top  about a
second after app window open, & then the other stuff would go away.  There
was a disk access made at about the same time.

Opening another window in same app results in some kind of screen re-write
that leaves stuff that was in the window being erased, & subsequent opening
of that window leaves it re-sized.

I don't notice any FONT problems while online using 0.44e, though.
