Glad you said it (thanks :-). I have just checked the PNGs in diffrent
OSs and it turns out to be an OS (Windows) specific problem, not IE
problem.

I just realized that the r-4264 of ch04dia1.png shows as a black square
in IE 6.0 and explorer under WindowsXP and IE 4.0and Explorer under
Win98 too (well, it looks good in Opera and Acroreader (svnbook PDF
version) so they are probably using their own PNG libs).

This problems are probably fixed when the Subversion book at
svnbook.redbean.com are upgraded and when the next Windows distro rolls
out.

I will monitor the doc/book/book/images directory in the Subversion
repository for a while in case this problem shows up again.
