Hello all,

I'm using PIL 1.1.7 on Windows XP.

You can see in the following code that I am unable to open .jpg files.  I AM
able to open .png files, but not .jpg.  I've also copied the output of
selftest.py to show that .jpg shows as being setup properly.  Can anyone
suggest a next step to resolve this problem?

Thank you!
