Spanky here..

Hi guys. Tail made a new app and I tried it and its cool. So I thought I would post somthing about it.

Heres what he said about it:

I made a standalone app to check the servers but it's only been tested on my machine use at your own risk:

--
I made a little ICQ-like app tonite that sits in your system tray and
flashes/makes a sound when people are on the servers. I find it handier
than the web page list.

Unzip, run the setup prog. You'll get an SDOEBeeper menu added to your
start bar. When you run it you get a little icon in your system tray.
Double click to bring up a list of servers or right click pick options to
set alarm and how frequently it checks. I've only run it on my PC does it
work on anyone elses?

--------------------------
me again
it runs on mine too

if it asks to update files let it
and it will want to reboot your comptuer
do it
and then run the setup program again

Then click on it in your start menu.

Hmm every time it tells me my files need to be updated and I restart, the next time I run setup it tells me the same thing again.
Wierd.

We got it working. If anyone else is having trouble try using this to install instead (file is twice as big but uses a nicer install system)

Hmmmmmmmm, and just what would it be asking me to update? I am a bit gunshy about programs that want to change any kind of config on my system. Please don't take offence at my question. Your program sounds like what Ive wished for! I am just a pre-emptive strike kind of guy.

Your VB runtimes and your microsoft internet transfer control. It won't ask you to update them unless your version is older than the one in the install.

I do this professionally, I wouldn't write anything to clobber your system... honest
