Thanks for your comments. I was about to say 'I'll look into this further', 
but I have learned something else:

This task-tracker entry:

http://qt.nokia.com/developer/task-tracker/index_html?method=entry&id=119929

Says that in fact qDebug only uses OutputDebugString if the Platform SDK is 
installed.

This seems weird behaviour to me, but I wonder if it's the cause of my 
problem. Anyone else know about this? I'll experiment tomorrow and see if I 
can learn more.

BTW, I'm running under XP, and most of the problems with DebugView relating to 
integrity levels and psexec seem to be Vista-related FWIW.

Thanks for your help
