    Hmm..I'll take a look at that. Thanks MASA - that was just the copied and pasted code of the GAotD ticker...so I didn't care to check any more on the code of the HTML.

    If you are having problems activating / downloading / installing the "GOTD" try using this neat little tool. Good Luck !

    Why can't everyone just use this?

    I mean seriously, it does solve alot of problems.

    I think this program may be dead now as they changed the method of downloading by using WikiFortio. There may still be a way to re-code this and I will be looking into this...

    I will be looking forward for your next version. Your "old one" made the whole process so much simplier and consistent. Should I remove your "old" version, "tjchan" ???
    Many thanks !

    Yes, you should as if it's not functional, then it's just a waste of space. =)

    Hi tjchan... Why not use the mirror site? Since it doesn't use WikiFortio.

    BillW50,

    Good idea! What I find really funny was that idea just came across just now...and I just checked the forums and see your response. I'm thinking WOW. That would work just fine. =D

    I'll get that fixed up tomorrow.

    The alternative is just to grab the link from Wikifortio. An additional step, but can't be that difficult to find if you already had to do so with the original page.

    Your installer managed to grab today's game giveaway when multiple attempts with other methods had failed. Thank you for the time and effort you have devoted to this project, TJchan. Well done!

    I hear tell that the wrapper that GAOTD sometimes uses doesn't run under Windows 98. So this might be one of the problems.
