However, I either don't understand how it works or it simply doesn't work for me.
Instead of getting a blinking [f] icon (as shown in the screenshot below):

I get a non-blinking [f] icon at top left corner (thus it's overlaying favicon) of the active window, which is not useful at all.
Could someone tell me what do I do wrong?
Tried on Win7sp1x64 and WinXPsp3x32

2 questions:
- What browser?

- Why are you resurrecting all these old, old, old, threads? Skrommel has left the building some years ago.

- Mozilla Firefox.

- This is a new thread. My request is written for a software that still works. And it doesn't matter much for me whether it's author is present/absent/alive or even dead. That's the power of open source software.
First of all I post feature requests/bug reports in order to get help from others. If I won't get that help - most probably I will have to help myself with my own hands. And that's a less pleasant, but still an acceptable scenario.

- Mozilla Firefox.

Firefox is known to have 'un-fixed' it's Windows presentation ever since version 5. A lot of tools that manipulate application windows in some way are unable to work with Firefox since that version. Probably the Skrommel tools, built back in the Windows XP and (start of) Vista era, can't cope with these issues.

For most of Skrommel's tools the source is available, you could adjust it to your needs, but seeing that hardly anybody has done this previously, there hasn't been much need for it...
