I tried it and it does not crash here, but I don't seem to be able to
get to the first section? I can use the controls to the left, view the
background story and the map, but I see nothing more. Entering
arbitrary numbers in the "Go To Page" box has no effect either.

There's also something fishy with the right part of the window. If I
click there I will activateany window beneath this program's. If there
are no other windows beneath, I can get the desktop menu to appear.

This is WinXP SP2, on a machine with a Radeon 9600 graphics card.
