If you start with good connection, then while writing your connection is getting slow, WLW also freezes the editing capability.
Last time I notice that I couldn't edit my post, and if I tried adding picture or sth it crashed. After a moment, connection came alive again, editing was re-enabled.
Sorry that you're geting this and thanks for helping to make Writer better!
To my knowlege, we havn't noticed anything like this for general editing, It would make sense if you were adding something like a video or some other online media. In fact you should be able to edit a post in general without any connection at all!
What was happening with the CPU during the time that your connection was getting worse? When you said it 'crashed' when adding a picture, was it a picture from disk or the web? Did Writer respond after it crashed when the connection came back?
Great as you have already tickled the points! Yes, the pictures are from the web; and the editing capability will be back when connection is excellent again. www.adultloo.info
