any ideas? thks
Hey Mistral:
the only "idea" that is coming to my mind, is that there might be a DLL
conflict between Iconoid and another program.
That is to say that Iconoid and another program might be sharing a common
resource file and they are conflicting with each other.
Did the problem show up after you installed something new? If so then a new
installation of another program may have modified or overwritten one of
Iconoid's DLL's. Replacing DLL's is not easy.
But you might also try temporarily shutting off as many start-up items and
programs as you can, and then restart your computer and just Iconoid. If you
don't get the error after you do this, then you know one of the start-up
items is conflicting. But the question then becomes which one? The only way
to know is to turn them all back-on, one by one, and restart, until you find
the program that is conflicting with Iconoid.
(If you are comfortable working with "services" then you can try temporarily
turning off as many services as possible, and likewise rebooting. But if you
don't know much about services, then it is best not to play around with
them.)
All of that is tedious and involves a heck of a lot of restarting, and may
not solve your problem.
In the end it could be a bug or issue with Iconoid itself, in which case you
would need to contact that company directly. I've heard people use the
"unable to hook" term when referring to Delphi and C++ code, so that might
point to a bug in the code.
