Yours may be outdated but at least it's not stolen stuff like SIW's is.

Now wait a second. You are going to say something like that but then not offer any details? Spill it man!:-D

Yeah, just modified the subject of my post after I *did* read it and before your reply. That's kind of ... well ... wrong.

An acknowledgement would still be nice, but not required.

I have used one of your smaller projects almost as is, but at least I asked. I think it was you, it has been too long (I've slept more than once since). All behind the scenes anyhow, so no one knows, or cares other than me... but I still ask.

That dude is a CPian. So obviously he got the code from CP. http://www.codeproject.com/script/profile/whos_who.asp?id=1769[^]

Just changed the dialog icon and the title text. That sucks! I wonder if there's more stuff they stole off the net.

Why on earth would you post an article here and declare that the code can be used in a commercial application if you're going to get ticked off when someone actually does what you said they could do? Cheers, Drew.

Thanks - I just searched my old sent-items and found him :-( I've apologized to him in a new thread.

I wasn't ticked off for that - I just thought SIW had taken my app, did a binary change of the resource text and used it directly. I later found out (a few mins ago really) that SIW is run by Gabriel Topala who had mailed me and got explicit permission. Crap! Today's a bad day!

Ahh, big assumption. It would be just as easy, or easier to recompile the source with those changes.

I feel for ya. I'm having one of those myself. Cheers, Drew.

I use SpeedFan (http://www.almico.com/speedfan.php[^]), and have MotherBoard Monitor, but it doesn't have my mobo listed as a choice.
