OK, this is confusing.. Some of my tiff images will open with windows XP imaging and some won't. The ones that WON't open with windows xp WILL however open with windows 98.

It just so happens, that a third party application makes the form of tiff that windows xp, and hence vb.net on my windows xp box, WILL NOT open. attached is a sample image. Can anyone make sense of this?

PLEASE note this image is NOT zipped. it was renamed with .ZIP so the board would accept it for upload.. please rename it .tif when you get it
