Hint: instead of copying the icon that the installer creates, make your own shortcut to thebat.exe manually. Corrupted icons are a feature of MSI's "published shortcuts", which instead of running the executable directly run the installer instead, which tries to check if something isn't right (unfortunately, I have yet to see a problem which these icons solve, while I've seen several programs where the icons would just restart the installer, which would report an error and request the original MSI file, and when that wasn't found, exit - however when ran through a shortcut that starts the EXE directly, the program would work without problems). -- < Jernej Simončič ><><><><>< http://eternallybored.org/ > [The Bat! v4.1.9 on Windows Vista 6.0.6001.Service Pack 1] He who shouts loudest has the floor. -- Swipple's Rule of Order ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 4.1.9 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
