I did not pirate it !!! I have downloaded and installed the beta and would like to know if this is a feature or a problem on my end before I decide if I want ot register. For the most part I like the program but this is more annoying than it's worth to me if it's a feature.
I don't have any of the problems you are talking about aside from the TLB homepage launching along with my homepage. So if it's not to much trouble maybe someone can find a "polite" way of telling me if there is a way stop this in the registered version. Thank You.
Quote:Unfortunately, that's because TLB is a popular target for piracy. So much so, in fact, that Yuri took the time to program intentional bugs into the code that only manifest when somebody has unsuccessfully attempted to bypass the registration. The bugs include (but are probably not limited to) icons distorting on mouse hover, web pages popping up at "random", and the inability to rearrange icons. So naturally, when a user complains of a problem that sounds suspiciously like one of these, our first diagnosis is that the software is pirated. The web page we link to is just kind of a polite way of saying so.
