Dear Batters, Using version 3.5.30, my connection centre hangs every time. I get the message "Some tasks are now active" and "Do you want to exit when they are finished?" Someone has a sense of humour: the only way to gain control of The Bat is with ctrl, alt, del. I tried disabling the anti virus - to no avail. I tried creating a new account - same thing.
This message is to say that I have now _downgraded_ to version 3.0.1.33 and am delighted with the result. -- Regards, Maurice Using The Bat! 3.0.1.33 on Windows XP Pro 5.1 2600 Service Pack 2 ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.51.10 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
