If the file has a '.txt' extension, you could try os.system'ing "start <filename>", which'll make the file pop open with notepad (or whatever happens to be associated with TXT files), from which the user would need to press Ctrl-P to make it print. > Is it possible that virus detector or some > self.defense software is interacting? Quite. I run firewall software on my PC that alerts me when a program is trying to launch another program. The message that it gives is not entirely unlike the one you gave me. To diagnose further, you could have the victim send you a screenshot to see what's really going on. With Outlook, it's as easy as hitting the Print Screen button (when the message is visible) and pasting the clipboard into an email. Alternatively, they paste into MS Paint, save the bitmap somewhere, and mail that to you. Good luck, -tom! -- -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
