Solved "Out of Memory" error

[intel352]

A client on a VPS repeatedly had issues installing IPB, as he would receive "Out of Memory" errors regarding the XML class, at the step where it imports style images.

As it turns out, the xml file in upload\ipb\resources\ipb_images-pro.xml.gz had at least half a dozen references to thumbs.db (apparently whomever packaged IPB for release was on an XP machine... ha). Each reference to thumbs.db was a friggin huge entry, as each entry is a large binary blob.

Anywho, removing those pointless thumbs.db references in the xml file (then moving the xml file into the .gz file, then re-uploading the .gz file and re-running the failed step) fixed the client's issues.

Note, this error only happens on certain server configurations, but regardless, the filesize was more than doubled due to those thumb.db references, so definitely can't hurt to have them removed.

Cheers
