I have installed babylon translator V8 and experienced issues with xplorer2. With babylon active when I double click on a folder in xplorer2, Xplorer creates a new tab to display the folder content. By the time I noticed that, I already had more than 15 tabs opened!!! Gosh!
Any idea what's the trouble? Anyone experiencing this?

Xplorer2 conflicts with Babylon 8 (or the other way round...
Yes, I have exactly the same problem: when Babylon 8 is running, Xplorer2 acts weird:
- Can't select multiple files
- New tabs opening all the time!
I tried changing Babylon hotkeys and mouse activation, but it made no difference. Also tried changing settings in Xplorer2. No joy either.
Any ideas on this?

Conflict with Babylon 8 is with Right Mouse Button...
OK, I have found a way round it: in Babylon, change the mouse activation settings to any combination with the LEFT mouse button, and the problem disappears.
BUT, notice that you can't combine it with CTRL or SHIFT, or else that will spoil ALL your multiple file selections in Windows...
In my case I combined ALT+LEFT BUTTON, and that seems OK. Although I really wanted to use the RIGHT button...
This question should be raised at the Babylon support. The problem seems to be on Babylon's side.

COnflict: Babylon and XPlorer2
No, it's not the same as if the <CTRL> key were stuck.
The conflict with Babylon causes multiple tabs to be opened simply by clicking on the file list pane, or by selecting files and folders. And clicking on a folder generates a second click: the folder is opened, and a file/folder inside that folder is clicked. It's very strange, you must see for yourself.
If it were like the CTRL key were stuck, the symptoms would be completely different. It would be just like selecting multiple files or folders while holding the CTRL key.

Babylon vs. XPlorer2 conflict: SOLVED
This is Mickets.
OK, I found a great solution for the Babylon x XPlorer2 conflict.
I am now using Lingoes, a free alternative to Babylon.
Not as good, of course, but free and <CTRL><Right-Click> works fine without conflicts.
