Something's probably just corrupted.  I've been using ATM under 7.0 ever
since the first beta without a hitch.  Remember -- you're using beta
software and things do crash, burn, and die, (speaking from experience)
and that's probably the cause.

Blech.  No way.  I'm using ATM as much as possible -- I've had more problems
with TrueType, especially under 7.0f2.  TrueType will suddenly stop
rendering characters leaving me with nothing...
