			<description><p>(Due to the late hour, I didn't know if this would make it into the user comments on the offer page, so I repeated the following text here.)</p>
<p>I loaded this on both a Windows XP and a ME system.  The XP installed &#38; ran OK.</p>
<p>Under Windows ME, installing went OK; however, whereas running "Bulk Image Downloader" was OK, running the "Bulk Image Downloader Queue Manager" consistently caused my system's USER RESOURCES to drop to nothing/zero from which I could not recover.</p>
<p>Once USER RESOURCES bottom out for a few seconds in Windows 9x/Me then further normal use of the computer is typically futile.</p>
<p>I tried to CTRL-ALT-DEL, and request that Bulk Image Downloader be terminated, or another time simply request a system shutdown, but either method still resulted in a hung system (although I could still move the mouse cursor around).</p>
<p>My only option was a forced power-down then a fresh Start (and let ScanDisk automatically run to fix any potential disk errors due to the lack of a proper shutdown).</p>
<p>On another attempt at running I exited/closed/terminated every non-essential process (including anti-virus) leaving pretty much a bare-bones OS which left GDI Resources at 94% and USER Resources at 99%.  I then launched the Queue Manager and watched as the USER Resources once again go to zero.  </p>
<p>(OK, the one utility I then ran to view the % resources was TaskInfo by <a href="http://links.giveawayoftheday.com/iarsn.com/">http://www.iarsn.com</a> , a utility somewhat like Microsoft's Sysinternals Process Explorer.  Like PE, it's excellent for troubleshooting issues.)</p>
<p>Due to encountering this problem towards the end of the offer period I haven't yet tried this application on a web site -- I wanted to try and get this comment submitted.  I'm hoping that (on the Windows ME system installation) the Queue Manager is not necessary.</p>
<p>Hopefully this can be resolved and BID offered again after implementing some of the prior feature and fix suggestions of others.
