    7980:p. &endash. Under some circumstances a trap may occur in GBM.dll when attempting to view a file.
    8081This appears to be a random occurrence. It occurs when attempting to view a binary file or a file
    81 FM2 thinks is binary. It appears it only happens if you use FM2's internal view for binary files.
    82 To solve the problem you should update GBM.dll to version 1.73 or higher (Available on Hobbes .
    83 HTTP&colon.//hobbes.nmsu.edu/h-search.php?key=GBM&amp.pushbutton=Search)
    84 If that is not a workable solution designating a "Binary Viewer" on the Viewers page of the settings
    85 notebook appears to suppress the problem.
     82FM2 thinks is binary. This appears to be a problem with mmioIdentifyFile misidentifying these as
     83MultiMedia files. I have only had it happens if I use FM2's internal view for binary files.
     84I have updated "ShowMultiMedia" which should reduce the likelihood of it happening. If you
     85continue to have the problem turn "ShowMultiMedia" off in the settings notebook. If this is unacceptable
     86updating GBM.dll to version 1.73 or higher (Available on Hobbes HTTP&colon.//hobbes.nmsu.edu/h-search.php?key=
     87GBM&amp.pushbutton=Search) also helps. Designating a "Binary Viewer" on the Viewers page of the settings
     88notebook appears to suppress the problem too.
