I didnt know until about three minutes ago. I have been posting on
hardware forums all morning but I just got a response that said - "its a
pixel by pixel screen capture" - though Im not sure why its capturing
the screen in the first place.
But, luckily - thanks to Savey in this forum - knew of this software and
emailed it to me. Very small in size. Said he hates it. Ah... someone
who knows the pain :)
Anyway, got my answer!
Thanks
Wade
