Hi Peter - 

Good news, I appear to be in business.  The plugin now appears to be
working for me.  Unfortunately, my scientific method has been a bit
dodgey - the main change I've made was the addition of the four lines
of code you proposed below, but I've also shutdown a few other programs
that were running - maybe there was a resource conflict on my system
that was causing the problem.  (main program I shut was filezilla
server GUI).  I've also rebooted a couple of times, which seems to have
helped as well....

The pop-ups haven't gone - a cmd.exe window still opens everytime
BR.exe is kicked off, but no error code any more.  The window auto
closes after the X-10 commands have been passed.  Actually, I don't
mind the window opening, as it gives me some sense things are working. 
At any rate, my slimserver is a dedicated machine, so it doesn't affect
my workflow.

As for permissions, Win2K doesn't appear to have the same controls in
regedit to modify permissions associated with registry keys as is
available in XP - I checked in both.  To test the impact of
permissions, in tests yesterday, I switched from "start at system
start" to "start at login" which I believe changes the user profile
under which the slim service is started.  This didn't seem to have an
effect.

At any rate, seem to be in business now.  I'll do some testing before
the weekend and post to let you know how things are going.

By all means, no need to apologise!  It's more interesting to work
through the bugs and get some understanding of what's actually going. 
In fact, many thanks for the plugin - looks like it will fill a gap I
was looking to fill.  Each of the amps in my place are connected via
X-10, so this is just the trick.

Will post an update after more testing.

Ian
