hi, i installed TrueLaunchBar on win xp final and i been noticing a wierd bug that only seems to happen if the computer been running a long time 6-12 hours or more, what happens is that suddenly when i open a folder from TLB or my desktop the toolbar turns black , here is an image to explain it further:

the reason i think tlb is causing this is beacuse when i dont run tlb this never happens, also fortunately a logoff then re-login in xp seems to fix it rather than having to reboot.

version 1.1.0.15 has some memory leaks. The next version will comes soon.

thanks for your reply ustas, i just downloaded the new version to try it, i will report back if this problem still happens, personally i think it had to do with the way tlb applies its skins.

well intrestingly enough, i uninstalled the older version then re-installed the new 1.1.16 version clean, and i still had the same problem, so i started disabling the plugins i had activated and after i removed the email plugin i never got the toolbar corruption again.

Thank you. I review email Notify code for leaks.

It seams the email notify is innocent.
Try to download and install:

This is private build of True Launch Bar (actually v.1.1.0.16 with fixing one bug on XP)
Tell me about results Wink

Ustas Great work! Smile just to make sure its all clear:

- after disabling the email plugin in 1.1.016 i never had the toolbar corruption issue again, from observing i believe it happens when the email notification icon starts spinning, although not everytime.
- i download the private build u supplied and installed it per instructions then re-enabled the email plugin again. i been using the computer last night and left it on with the email icon spinning all night, and so far no toolbar corruption! Smile

so i think its fixed now, but i will let u know if it happens again. Smile

u rock! Smile
