</div>I read that Webkit-image is a "web browser" which saves an image of a<br>
Web page (rather than displaying the page).<br>
I don't know what would have installed it on your machine, but not QGIS.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>It was probably an old attempt at trying to run KDE Marble Desktop</div><div><a href="http://edu.kde.org/marble/" target="_blank">http://edu.kde.org/marble/</a></div>
<div>And one of the attempts to try and get the latest version, not only downloaded... but working too :)</div><div>(It asks to install KDE and the entire desktop platform and to compile the program myself)</div><div>.. so i use an older version of it, and it seems fine :)</div>

But I think this dll shouldn't be a problem... unless C:\webkit-image<br>
has<br>
been permanently added to your Windows PATH variable.<br>

</div>I think you'll find that the one in the Windows folder is causing your<br>
problem. QT isn't used by Windows itself, so you could try deleting it,<br>

<div><br></div><div>Anyway, i guess Qgis 1.6 is not designed to work my computer lol.... maybe version 1.7 will work :)</div><div>the older versions are VERY difficult to find, especially the version that doesn't include all those extra programs that a beginner map maker would never use.

<div>The qgis website does not have any links to the older versions</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://gamblis.com/2010/03/30/quantum-gis-version-1-4-free-download/">http://gamblis.com/2010/03/30/quantum-gis-version-1-4-free-download/</a></div>
<div><br></div><div> And hey, this program version works just fine and no complaint from it :)</div><div><br></div><div>cheers,</div><div>Sam</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
to see if that solves the problem. But you might find that there are<br>
other related dlls which cause the same problem.<br>
And presumably this would break whichever program installed the dll.<br>
If you don't use the offending program it would be good to uninstall it.<br>
If you do use it, life might be getting more complicated :)<br>
