Hi Jamal. 

No problems.
I use it all the time in my day to day job so I know it can be useful.

Thanks.

Thanks, Nick!  I've now posted an archive containing your batch file 
(slightly renamed) together with the discussion below as a ReadMe file 
at the URL
http://EmpowermentZone.com/RunShark.zip

Let me know if you have any problems with this way of making it 
available.  I think your contribution will be appreciated by blind 
programmers doing Internet-related work.

Jamal
