I've found a bug in the beta 8 Windows GUI.  The 'open' option on the 
context menu won't open files which are specified with a path, nor will it 
traverse the library_path to find files in include directories other than 
the one created by the Pov installation.

To test for the first portion of this bug, create an inc file and #include 
it with its fully-qualified name (e.g. "C:\temp\whatever.inc") in a pov 
scene.  Right click on the filename portion of the #include directive and 
pick the 'open' option from the context menu.

To test for the second portion of this bug, add a directory to Pov's 
library paths, place an include file there, #include the file, and attempt 
to use the context menu's open option.

In testing, beta 8's behavior was identical on both Win ME and Win2K.
