I have been using calibre successfully for the last year; however, after recently updating I cannot seem to get anything to work. I uninstalled the program, deleted the program file, deleted the registry entries, and then re-installed. After all this effort I am still having problems.

The program loads fine, but when I try to do anything the program just hangs. I cannot even import a single book anymore. In the most recent version I at least get an error message stating that the program has "hung" and to "restart" the program. In previous versions I could not convert any of my books (all non-drm). Does anyone know what has happenned during the last several updates?

I am using winxp. After more than a year of successfully using the program I am about to give up! I suspect all my metadata will now be lost as well?

I would appreciate any help.
