Also, hrm... do you run with any sort of special settings, Cranioscopircal? I can't help but notice how Uploaded: gets clipped a little and everything in general seems to be a bit bigger, and I wonder how I can prevent that from happening.

No more than setting the properties I want through the XP Display Properties/Settings/Advanced Properties (I use the WindowsXP style).
As I mentioned, in the intial dialogue box the fonts are a tad to large for the buttons. Virtually all else that I have handles this. I can't tell you why though  :(

Here it is running under a vanilla account:

Couldnt get the crash to occur again.. the dialog that showed was the "Run As" dialog where i could give it permission to run as administrator.  It doesn't crash any more, but doesn't seem to install any context menu extension even when i give it permission.  Not that this bothers me as i love to drag+drop files anyway instead of right-clicking.

Works for me here.
XP Pro Sp3.
Had to log-in as Admin, as instructed.

#1 shows results with (inset) context menu item for a) explorer, b) True Launch Bar
#2 shows items in queue

Anyone else have this problem? :S :D
My wife does!
Every so often I get "Come and look at this!" so I dutifully leave that in which I was engrossed and shuffle off to see.
There follows "It was here a moment ago." followed by a frenzy of tab clicking.
I give up, return to my project, and immerse myself.
Just as I hit my stride there comes "Found it!"
Good job one of us is perfect!

Okay, I have it.

Try entering a proper noun or a name.
Something between .65 and .66 makes capitals screw up the output.

This is why I was getting Billl and Ben in my earlier example.

pinhead -> pinhead
Pinhead -> Pinnhead (trigger on 3)
Pinhead -> Pinhhead (trigger on 4)
