To hear that someone else is finding fault in such a great place just because is flabbergasting.

Hmm, cthorpe (Carl Thorpe) is our volunteer official discount coordinator and he was not whining about no discounts for programs this month (or maybe he was? :P).

Anyway I really don't think anyone was finding fault. Who would?  ;)

Because of your good spirited nature you must not have noticed that I actually addressed mouser in my post.

Otherwise I am sure you would have noted that I am most definitely going crazy and the DonationCoder forums are out to get me.

I realize this just cracks everyone up, but personally, I found myself getting angry.  In fact, I am angry.

It's more or less just another straw in the hat of how screwed up the people in this world can be.

But mouser...  I realize there are idiots who no matter what, will not be pleased.  But now you have taught the rest of those same idiots who aren't smart enough to "annoy" DonationCoder how to do so?

You are truly a glutton for punishment.    ;)

I gave, not because I had plenty of money at the time, but because I believed in DonationCoder.  And for good cause it turns out.  I believe DonationCoder was barely six months old when I gave.  To see it still thriving years later makes me ever so tingly.

To hear that someone else is finding fault in such a great place just because is flabbergasting.  I guess that is what makes an idiot and idiot right?  Illogical madness that makes normal people boggle at the level and intricacy of their idiocy.

Anyway... I plan on requesting a member kit.  Can you tell me how much it is though so I don't have to feel bad that this makes the 2nd time I'll be receiving it?  The first time my kids doodled on all the paper and stole my stickers.  This time I plan on putting them to good use.

I'm going to put them all over the stuff they don't want stickers on.  Muahahaha!

Oh, and if possible can I request extra of the tiny stickers?  I've got 4 kids and they've got *plenty* of stuff for me to tag.

Ugh!  Yes, I did mean to post in that thread.

You know... I have noticed odd goings on whenever I have numerous DonationCoder forum windows open and am logged in.  Sometimes I click a link in one window and it reloads another (I think) and just weird stuff all around.

I've not got a great memory, but am positive that odd stuff happens.

Dammit!  You just wanted to see me use an odd number.

7.  Saving custom lyrics overwrites the ".mp3.txt" file.  Thereby only one song can have custom lyrics.

Subsequently lyrics aren't even loaded with the file that was selected when the custom lyrics were saved.

Was ".mp3.txt" intentional or was it supposed to be "name.mp3.txt?"

8.  What parameters are you using to search AZLyrics and AbsoluteLyrics?  As it stands, I have fed MP3s with valid ID3v1 and v2 information and it finds no lyrics.  I also used popular songs, both of which I identified at those sites (which means they should have been found).

9.  It would be lovely if there were a method to turn off automatic searching of those lyrics sites.  Or to fire them separately.  As it stands, if I search one I cannot simply go to the other.  I have to restart the song to search anew.

10.  Back to the network problem... something is seriously jacked in that application.  I added the program to my firewalls whitelist and it made the same "unknown attempt," yet that was it.  No network activity at all.

I refuse to let the odd numbers have their way with me.

Hrmm... I guess there is a 6.

6.  I'm not sure what methods you employ or what native abilities of AutoIt are being utilized, but when I attempted to retrieve lyrics from one of the two sites mentioned, my firewall was not alerted to its activity in normal fashion.

Instead, I see that it was blocked my firewall.  Normally software would request a "program access" to the outside world via a protocol, and would have a destination IP.  Your program for some reason provided none of those things and in fact the reason for automatic blocking was because your program did not identify the type of request it was making.

This would have been handled automatically by using whatever network related APIs and functions that were available in said language.  I can only guess that AutoIt does something a little oddball in that respect?

Anyway, as it stands now I would have to go into my firewall settings and add your program manually.  Of course, I have no clue what protocol it needed without checking so I'd have to allow any (UDP, TCP, ICMP, IGMP or any combination of those), and I'd have to DNS those 2 domains to list destinations.  OK, I *could* just add the domain, but I'm a stickler.
