Whoa, that is awesome!!!!  How sure is it that no one else can download mine?

Did you download anyone elses?

sViz - Works just fine.  

Doc, don't quit your day job!!  lol...

So, long as you're not logged in as someone else, it will only DL your PMs. Wincustomize uses a universal url for messages: https://forums.wincustomize.com/pm

That's the one the gadget uses.

Thanks for the feedback everyone.

Almost forgot. This will just be for message collection (sorry Jim!) Checking for new messages would make the gadget more complicated than I'd like.

How many messages do you have? When I had 43 messages in my inbox, it took a minute or so. A couple of factors might affect it: # of messages, internet connection, CPU usage; it probably shouldn't take that long, so you might go ahead and restart the gadget.

I'll see if I can work in an abort/retry function.

The logic is simple: If using the app, you cannot download anyone else's pm's, then why would you think someone else could download yours?

Besides, that is a "that's my job" kind of question, don't you think, bud?

86 messages.

I ended up closing it. When i run it now, it opens at 50% and stays there. Where is the temp directory so I can clean it up and retry it?

Your stuff makes me (almost) wish that I used a Windows PC as my primary at home.
I'll give it a shot tomorrow at the office (if the build isn't expired)

I'll give it a go.... my 'inbox' is usually on 500 ...till I dump some of the least relevant to allow more.....

Is this right?

I've switched from DX's sendrequest to microsoft.xmlhttp. I think that should take care of the cache issues and speed up the process.  DOWNLOAD BETA 1.1

Same here.

Thanks, everyone, for your help. It's in the gallery, now.
