Something interesting - most of my applications work fine with

CachemanXP:

I'm just curious as to what this program might be doing
differently from others.


I just downloaded CachemanXP 1.1. Can't find anything like this in its helpfile
20.02.2004 01:42 293.388 CachemanXP.chm

Next I looked at everyone of the 3 executables: none has a registry key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\CachemanXP in there and none has the word "Shell" except CacheManXP.exe which imports SHELL32.DLL. The programs are written in Delphi and seem to use some Delphi classes for the trayicon. CacheManXP.exe is actuall a service, but Kerio Firewall is too and I never had a problem with its trayicon.
I have to say tho, that I don't get a tray-icon either (.7 RC1 and vtray 1.06. So can you give us further info about your version of CacheManXP ?
