So I'm thinking there might be 2 features, interactive mode where bubs interacts with the program, or silent mode, where the program just sits idly in the system tray swallowing keystrokes, so you can leave your computer unattended while burning a dvd or what have you.-kwacky1 (December 12, 2008, 04:32 AM)

I was thinking how this would be good if it autolaunched after a certain length of system idle time, in case you step away and forget to run it.:Thmbsup: This is such a clever and simple idea!!-app103 (December 14, 2008, 07:37 PM)
Thanks App, I was thinking of having some kind of ScreenSaver option as a feature, but I think I might incorporate IdleStart (http://appsapps.info/idlestart.php) as a configurable option within CrazyLittleFingers!-kwacky1 (December 14, 2008, 10:17 PM)
Unless I miss something, dual monitor are not really supported.
At least for me (win XP Pro x64), the second monitor is usabled with the mouse .. and thus it is possible to do bad things with the mouse.
Except this, this is really a useful tool.-jocelyn (January 05, 2009, 03:52 AM)

Still squished in Vista... looking forward to a version that works with Vista (so's my 18 month old)hmm, I won't have access to a vista machine for a few days, might have to turn on some logging.
Hi.
I have the same problem with the squished images, but I have XP! (pro, sp3). :huh:
The only Vista-like thing I have is QTTabbar and QTAddressbar - windows explorer addons.
Other things I have speculated about causing this is Picasa 3 and XnView Shell Extension.
And other things running on my system is flashnote, launchy, avg, comodo, mediadetect, rbtray and stickies.
I hope it is resolved - have at two-year old who is crazy about this keyboard. :-\-SvartaUdden (January 09, 2009, 10:52 AM)
When I try to unzip crazylittlefingers.zip, it asks me for a password, which I don't see referenced anywhere here. Am I missing something?Hi dhc02, there's a good chance you were downloading while I was uploading the 1.1 release (my internet was very slooooow last night), please try again and let me know how you go.-dhc02 (January 10, 2009, 11:01 AM)
in fact i have been getting bad zip for a while now.. come on kwacky! maybe back a small zip version, and then an addon pack for those who have magic powers and can download it without corruptio.how about I archive it to floppies and mail it to you :D-mouser (January 10, 2009, 11:08 AM)
Downloaded and extracted CrazyLittleFingers.zip with UniversalExtractor. Here's the error that I get for CrazyLittleFingers.exe:I think you might need to download it again too.-PhilB66 (January 10, 2009, 11:27 AM)
Still unable to extract.-PhilB66 (January 10, 2009, 11:53 PM)
(ps only shows on my main monitor, others are left alone).-mouser (January 11, 2009, 05:43 AM)
Pushing the SHIFT key 5 times turns on the Sticky Keys Feature Dialog Box. Also, right clicking on the secondary monitor activates the taskbar on the primary one. Other than that, it seems to work great :up:.-PhilB66 (January 11, 2009, 06:42 AM)
I love your program very much, but unfortunately she loves it more and is apparently more passionate about it ... To the point where she has somehow figured out how to get the computer to shutdown, go into sleep/hibernate mode, or something ... I'm still not sure what she manages to do, but she just goes crazy on the keyboard watching the pictures change, and then suddenly the monitor throws up a No Signal and turns off, yet the computer is still running, and nothing short of a cold reboot seems to bring it back... Any ideas what she's doing and how to turn it off/prevent it/fix it?? I love letting her go crazy with it, but my computer also streams to my TV, and it's not possible to watch TV when she keeps resetting it... She also gets very upset when it turns off lol, she absolutely loves it!-DizZa (January 13, 2009, 01:51 PM)
i have 4 monitors by the way -- and the full screen images and sounds are very nice. might be nice to blank all the screens though.-mouser (January 13, 2009, 06:16 AM)
no change here -- still only shows on primary monitor.-mouser (January 14, 2009, 05:27 AM)
Hi - I'm a new member and this is the first program I have tried. When I unzip it I get an error when trying to open the application file. Could I download this file only again? The media pack unzips OK and I don't think it is necessary to repeat that download.

Its not working for me. I just get a black screen but no interaction.
Edit: Oh. Never mind! I didn't realize that you have to download the whole zip file. It is a little confusing or maybe I'm just an idiot.-alivingspirit (January 21, 2009, 11:19 AM)
super work kwacky
tried it out on my 3%half yr old niece today - she loved it, me too :D-tomos (February 24, 2009, 07:44 AM)
dont know if im alone, imtrying to run the program on windows7 and it works fine for about the first 5 or 6 key presses then appears to freeze and no matter what button is pressed there is no sond or image, when exiting it shows on the task manager as not responding i have tried both the .exe in the zip and the update as well-karlandellie (June 29, 2010, 02:30 PM)
Kwacky1,
I love the idea of your software--I've been meaning to search for something like this for some time. Great idea with the photos. The problem I'm having is that when I execute the program I just get a black screen w/ no images. I'm running XP. I downloaded both the large file and the exe file a couple times. Do I need to specify where the photos are somehow? Do I need a key?
Thanks for doing this. My 16-mo old daughter is very interested in whacking away at the keyboard. I can't wait to try it out with her.
Thanks,
