Confirming with m239 on WinXP - as described (do not forget to set "Regular expression" checkbox in Find&Replace dialog). P2 because of crash, keyword.
This is OK in OOH_m7. Please note that a loop (some call it freeze) is not a crash. However, both are "P2". *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 85684 ***
OK in SRC680_m247 too. Closed.
