I have a particular problem that may have further ramifications.  I 
have a demonstration on line at Wolfram  

http://demonstrations.wolfram.com/RestrictedThreeBodyProblem/

In version 6 the plot from NDSolve will "behave" properly up to time 
= 53, but in version 7 it fails at much earlier times.

The same result (version 7 not giving a good calculation at later 
times compared to version 6) shows up at other "Jacobian constants".  
(The same result is shown in Player 6 vs Player 7).

I have posted the attachment  on

as a pdf file called Comparison of ver 6 and ver 7.
 
Many thanks,
