That certainly did the trick!
... and then the next problem surfaced. It was gobbling up CPU power like there was no tomorrow. It was junk a constant 37% of all 4 cores, constantly. Network traffic both up and down were 50kB/s permanently. I decided to remove the gadget, reinstall it, and now it won't connect, just like it did before. Blank. (On the upside, no crazy processor use either.)

please clean up:
C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Sidebar\Gadgets\
there may be sab folders with older versions.
then download the newest version (make sure the filename is sab.gadget) and install again.
weird you both have the same problem and it works on my test machine...
tell me!

Sorry, I must of had a brain fart. I used 1 ms instead of minimum 1000 ms for the timeout which was causing high \CPU usage. I now am using 2000 ms, but what is the best value to use?pieteckhart wrote: please clean up:

i use 1000 mili and never had problems with it. 3 PC's all using one SAB host did not slow i down so use whatever your system can handle 
i think a dropdown instaid of a text field is a good idea?
Options:
1000
2000
5000
10000
?

Deleting the files seems to have done the trick. I never bothered to check the refresh timer, I wasn't even aware it was there. (And I certainly never edited the value.)
But all is well again!

I think that would be a great idea. Maybe make it a dropdown based on # of seconds you want the timer to be, but your code can use milliseconds in the background.pieteckhart wrote: i use 1000 mili and never had problems with it. 3 PC's all using one SAB host did not slow i down so use whatever your system can handle

Version: 1.0.1.6
You can now choose a sound file that plays when the queue is finished.
Go to settings, Options to choose a file by entering the UNC path to the file.
Let me know if this works for you.
