Hi Madness

Try switching off "WinVroc *** alert" old bean, then add this line to your
CV:

*** all my life.

I use WinVroc all the time, it NEVER fails me. Sooooooo, it must be up your
end old son.

Snearing regards!

I thought that WinVROC was Spyboy, it just changed it's name with version
2 or something.

Sounds like a problem with your setup mate.

Who would create a Warez version of something you can download
for free?:)

Hmmmm, sorry, but I have to disagree strongly, in my experience, Win
VROC has always works flawlessly, and is a credit to the people who have
spent many hours getting it to work as well as it does.

I would think you may not have all the latest patches or other
necessary files for WinVROC or GPL? Have you checked out the various
FAQ's on the use of WinVROC?

    If he has the latest install, I wonder if he uninstalled GSB first and
then deleted the remaining directories?  Wasn't there a problem if you
didn't do that first?

It's the same olld story.

There will always be kooks who think they are geeks. These people take great
pleasure in bashing the efforts of others without having actually
contributed anything of worth themselves. Hey buddy. Next time someone tries
to feed you a free lunch, maybe they will pass the sauce if you ask
reasonably, rather than bite his hand!

You will find a wealth of assistance and goodwill from the inhabitants of
this group if you try to vent your frustrations in a more constructive
manner!!

But it IS a slightly different program, with differing abilities.  Although for
me, WinVROC does work much better than SpyBoy did.<shrug>
