Windows app that creates files with $ in filename?

Post by msetzerii »

Have a windows Program Pegasus Mail that works fine on its own, but has an extension that will cause crashes.
The Pegasus Program creates a number of files that contain $ in filenames. Few letters $ few more then extention that ends with $.
The addon IERenderer will crash. Wondering if it might be the passing of filenames between the Program EXE file and the IERENDERER.DLL.

Know in DOS/WINDOWS the $ was a common character used in filename created for temporary use, but in Linux they represent variables.

Not sure if using a different character in filenames might solve problem. Say using an "_" instead of "$".
