I /think/ the problem is actually in the way Vista handles things run from Program Files, I don't have Vista but I remember some articles about this. Can you look in c:\documents and settings\<username>\.pan2 and list what files you have there? Also can you try running pan from someplace other than program files? Maybe create a c:\pan folder and run it from there? I have a team at work testing Vista so I can borrow a Vista system later in the week to play with if you don't get a solution before then.
