The file name of the book is "Without Remorse - CLANCY_TOM.azw". I know that DOS doesn't like spaces in file names, so I renamed it to "Without_Remorse_CLANCY_TOM.azw" with no joy. Then I thought that the old 8-character DOS limitation (EARLY DOS) might be kicking in and renamed it to "WO_REM.azw" with the same result. The Mobi2Mobi CUI has handled some pretty messy file names for me in the past so I didn't really think the name was the problem, but I was grasping at straws.

I don't know what happened, but I rebooted (for the fourth time since I started having this problem), started the V6 GUI, it took about 5 minutes to open the file then started working perfectly (and quickly). I changed the file name of all 12 books in the series (I appended a series name and a number so I could read them in order without a cheat sheet). Like everything else these days I just have to blame it on my security software since I can't figure out why it stopped working or why it started again.

Thanks for your help.
