This is yet one more example of why I suggested 2-3 weeks ago that
64-bit installs should *default* to also installing the 32-bit
version... not everyone understands that x86-land lives on in x64-land
(nor should they have to), and pops up non-obviously in places like file
open dialogs [of 32-bit apps].

The Vista x64 devs went to some effort to meld 32 and 64 -bit
environments fairly seamlessly - shouldn't we (app and add-on devs) do
the same? ;)
