[quote]It showed up on my puter[/quote]
lol... clearly it has a mind of it's own .... at any rate I've fixed all the above bugs and made a few improvements .... everything is running smooth from where I stand, still needs to be bug tested for a while longer yet, there's sure to be something else that will show up.

lol, it seems in this situation you had the opposite effect; it actually showed up for you.... hmmmm maybe we're on to something here...
SENDBROKENPROGRAMTOWITCH = FIXEDPROGRAM
.... nawww, that's gotta be far to easy.
At any rate I've got the new version for you, you can download it (from the same link I gave you last time) at your convenience ... just be sure that the previous version isn't running when you install the new one.

I found one more bug, but it's fixed now .... I've updated the download link but if you've downloaded it before now you'll have the following issue:

When shutting down windows, windows will be forced to end the task for the program - not a graceful exit .... but it's fixed now /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

I threw together a web page for the program ... I'll be the first to admit that I'm not a great web page designer, at any rate it gives the basic information.

lol jake, the page is perfectly fine. Just need to put it on an existing website so it has a header, footer and maybe navigation to it. Looks good /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

if you want, I can take the images and your html coding and toss it on our server in a kn themed layout, and we can put a counter on the downloads so we know how many people have downloaded it.

okay...just to test it (seeing as shaw decided I should reboot) the original changer DID load on startup; I installed the upgrade before my second shaw-enforced reboot and the new version also loaded on startup. /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

Good to hear /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' /> .... I think I might add a new wallpaper tonight just to make sure that it does in fact add to our library the next time we boot up. Oh and maybe I'll add a alert message too.

Does it use an XP Tooltip/Bubble for the alert?

Right, about the alert ... I didn't put an alert this time.... however, the alert will not show up as a bubble, but rather as a form with text on it, but like i said you should NOT have gotten an alert today. Now, about the bubble indicating a new wallpaper has been added to your library... I don't believe that in the version you and Ada have that the bubble will appear. That's something I added yesterday. However, if all went well you should have a "Dark Side of The Moon" wallpaper added to the library now.
