It was only a demo I made for my own amusement so there's no way I'd regard
it as bug-free, finished or even 100% stable. It was literally 10 minutes
work and only amounts to about two dozen lines of code.
I've now converted it to an NT service (told you it would be easy) so I'll
send a .rar compressed version to anybody that wants it.

Hi Angus
Would it be worth forwarding it to Jim so he can add it to the thin
downloads?
Cheers
Dan

I made it myself, for testing purposes. I can't find the service at the
moment but I have an application version I could forward if you want to
have a play. It's very simple so converting to a service would only take
me a few minutes.

Would you mind letting me know what service this was, from where, any
prices, URLs and so on?
TIA.
