The only problem I am having is with the zoom, it zooms into the image brilliantly when I use the + key but as soon as I release it the image zooms back out again instantly, it even does this when I double click for it to zoom in, it zooms in great and then instantly straight back out.  I cannot keep it zoomed in!

 I have Windows XP with all patches etc., have Microsoft Mouse & Keyboard, have no other problems with the software whatsoever and can see the images brilliantly and in hi-res but only for a split second before it rushes away again... not good.  Any ideas what could be causing this?

Ok... My joystick was causing the problem.  If you have a joystick, unplug it.

 ----------------

I've got the same problem.  I must be missing some thing...

 Cany anyone explain how zoom works?  It seems to automatically zoom back out every time I zoom in.  I can't find an obvious setting to change this behavior.
