SYMPTOMS
In the Norwegian version of Microsoft Windows XP, you try to delete a print job. When you click Ja to confirm the cancellation, Windows Explorer may stop responding, and you may receive the following error message:

Explorer.EXE har et problem og ma lukkes. Vi beklager det inntrufne.



CAUSE
This problem occurs because the message that prompts you to confirm the cancellation contains the extra characters &quot;%s.&quot; The US English version of Windows XP does not have these extra characters in the confirmation message. Therefore, the error does not occur in the US version.
