In reply to <mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : MB>>> Since v. 3.80.06 runs just fine for me and versions 3.81.03, .04, MB>>> and .05 have this problem at launch, and based on this most recent MB>>> test, I don't think my drivers are the source of the difficulty.
>> Can you test that version with only one (and empty) account? If it >> works, load your accounts and try to narrow it down. Remove virtual >> folder, filters and stuff like that until it works. MB> How do you mean? If possible, make a backup of your current TB!, uninstall it, delete all related folders and install a fresh version with the msi provided by Ritlabs at their site. Then create a new POP3 account. Now try the new beta version. If it works then it's something your current installation, if not it's something in your system (which I doubt). MB> I have only two accounts in TB! Both POP3. MB> Do you mean set up another TB! account but with only the default folders MB> and settings? No, setup a fresh TB! MB> And move my existing POP3 accounts (they're under MAIL) completely out MB> of the folder for The Bat! (it's under Programs)? MB> But I thought the Mail Ticker settings function across all TB! MB> accounts. MB> So what would the settings for the accounts have to do with the Mail MB> Ticker code not functioning in the three latest betas? I thought your couldn't even open TB! at all. It could have something to do with VF or filters. I'm just trying to cut things off. MB> Remember, if I reset the Mail Ticker setting to "Hide" in v. 3.80.06, MB> and then install 3.81.03, .04, or .05, the beta launches and functions MB> perfectly. MB> If I then reset (within, for example, beta v. 3.81.05) the Mail Ticker MB> to "Always," it immediately begins to flicker, is unusable, and then MB> the entire TB! window partially unpaints itself. Hmmm... I think I didn't understand your problem correctly. MB> TB! freezes for most functions--including ability to change the Mail MB> Ticker setting from "Always" back to "Hide"--and I can only close it. MB> And, in the case of .05, must resort to Task Manager to close. I see. Mine is working perfectly. MB> Furthermore, after I then close TB!, it's impossible to get back to v. MB> 3.80.06 over 3.81.05, whether choosing either "Repair" or "Modify." I MB> can return to v. 3.80.06 only if I either rename or delete the exe MB> within the TB! folder. Or, more drastically, with a System Restore. MB> I am a bit leery of moving my existing POP3 accounts out of the TB! MB> folder. There are saved messages within them that I would truly hate MB> to lose. MB> Anyway, I'm not completely sure that this is what you were suggesting MB> I do, Goncalo. MB> Please clarify? I've explain it above but I thought you couldn't even open TB! Nevertheless, if it was with me I would try it anyway. I remember when I had a problem with the Backup system that no one else had and I had to narrow it down by myself. I guess you're a little is this position now. -- Best regards, Goncalo Farias Areoma: The odor from an exercise room after an aerobics c ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 3.81.05 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
