Hmmm, this sounds right so not sure. I would suggest the following however. Isn't control s a key that is used by Outlook Express for something else? I'm not saying that is the problem, but try changing the hotkey to something else not being used by the application.

So, I decided to download, and give it a try. I am running the SpamFighter software, which ties in with Outlok Express, placing a menu bar at top of the OE screen. The only way for me to access this menu (or toolbar), is by use of the mouse. So I found, this would be the perfect chance of testing the HotSpot script. Here is what I did: First, I placed the mouse on the actual choice on the SpamFighter toolbar, by using the mousekeys in WE. Normally, now I would have pressed the LeftMouse to open the scroll down submenu, and from there used the up/down-arrows. Next, I pressed the HotSpot hotkey of Ctrl-Alt-P, and the HotSpot definition dialog opened. I filled in the different fields, Named it SpamFighter, gave it the hotkey of Ctrl-S, associated it with Outlook Express, and had it choose Current position, which I took, would be the position of the mouse when entering the HotSpot definition. Also, when asked for an action, I did tell it to press a key, and when requested, I pressed the Numpad-Slash (that is, the LeftMouse key, that I usually would have pressed). (My system has no physical mouse, since I never bothered, being only me who use the computer anyway.) Then I saved the whole thing, and was ready to try it out. Well, Now, when in Outlook Express, pressing Ctrl-S - the hotkey I set in HotSpot - all WE does, is to ding on me, and the speech says 'DASH'. What am I doing wrong? Any Idea? _____ I am using the Free version of SPAMfighter <http://www.spamfighter.com/len> . We are a community of 7 million users fighting spam.
