Find And Run Robot / Re: Latest FARR v2.00.56 ALPHA PREVIEW Release - February 25, 2007

justice - thanks for pointing these issues out. I just installed FARR on my Vista PC at home and noticed this same list of issues. I manually edited the config file and after that changes in the options dialog started getting saved like normal.
Are you looking into making FARR more compatible with Vista:Thanks for your great work. It's very much appreciated.
- FARR seems to write out settings (to itself?) when the app is closed. This does not work in VISTA unless the app is run as administrator. Windows Defender will not start apps that require administrator privs on startup -> have to start FARR manually -- then UAC prompt appears.
- Because you can/t know in advance when you're going to change FARR options, you'll always run it in admin privs mode
- Because of the prompt and increased security it's hard to instantly use it, so it takes away the most positive thing about FARR -- speed and ease of usage.
- tray Icon does not blend in with transparency
- status bar of FARR is cut off at 2/3th height
