    im sorry to complain but could you run the PID check with a backgroundworker?



    e.result = "whatever the output from key check is"

    I dont want to because I use a boolean busy variable to prevent the window from being closed while the program is busy...so if the user is able to run something else while the PID checker is going that sets busy to true, then back to false when it is done (but the PID checker is not done yet) then the user will be able to close the form while the checker is still running and cause a catastrophic error...

    I guess I could do that, I would just have to change some things around. :)

    ...and set e.Cancel to the .isbusy property as well and create a background worker... I will do it for the 1.1.0 release :D

    it would stop windows from thinking the program stopped responding.

    I know, and it is something I considered for a while...I just dont want to let a bug slip by that may allow the user to close the form while the PID checker is still running and waiting for pidgenx to return a value.

    I will get it done though... :)

    you can tell explorer to shut the program down when its stopped like that but the other way explorer cant mess with it and you will get your result

    Redid the code real quick to implement your suggestion PAYMYRENT... Just released a 1.0.8b version instead of waiting to release the next incremental release.

    Thank you for the suggestion :) The Product Key checker should be a lot more user-friendly now... :D

    No big deal...I'm not in this for the rep, although I do appreciate it. I am just happy to be able to provide something that I hope will be useful to people. :D
