Pam,

I might be wrong on my assumption that the answer dialog was the evil 
part (not that it is not evil), I made a standalone of pkcdisaster 
without Answer dialog or Ask dialog, meaning it starts without asking 
me the login!!!! and it works!!! but in windows it dies the same death 
we always see... (or I created a stack without the dialogs, but with 
the evil answer dialog code/bits/spirit in it and it still causing 
trouble). I don't know... it's past midnight here, I think I must 
sleep.

I try again tomorrow!

cheers
andre
