[tomboy-list] Crash at startup on Vista

[James Chaldecott]

P.S. I think I know what put libpng, etc, in "C:\Windows". It looks
like it was the last build of Elcetric Sheep that I installed (build
v2.7b16 at http://community.sheepserver.net/).

Does anyone know the recommended way of sorting out this sort of
version conflict?

It's unusual for things as commonly used as libpng to have version
compatibility issues, though, right? Is there actually a more serious
issue here?
