SUCCESS, all I had to do was to "Download New Projects" and it worked. Although it did show the information correctly before. I guess a "manual" update may be required to ensure everything is working fine.

MINOR BUGS

1) If you exit the FahMon, and restart it, the Bonus Points will not be shown in the PPD Column. To "fix" this issue, you have to "Download New Projects" and automatically, the PPD will include Bonus Points. Is there a reason this is happening?

2) Client Type is unknown for GPU3 BETA Client.

3) Core is unknown for GPU3 BETA Client.

Yes, it looks like the windows build isn't correctly removing the old projects.dat file.

I just deleted the proj.dat file. It built the proj.htm file and is holding fine. No problem starting and stopping.
Want me to zip the .exe and send it to you?

I've committed the changes required to get a successful build to SVN, and I'm fixing the problem where it doesn't remove projects.dat right now.

A member of our Team Helix folding@Home team, user name Kylemaul asked me to pass along an Idea he thought you would like to consider for a future FahMon. Gave him the link to this post, but he wanted me to pass it along.

Idea:
Make the color-coded square in the UI window also part of the system tray icon.
IOW, if the status is green, reflect it similarly in the system tray icon, same for yellow, red etc.
"At a glance" without even opening the window!

Seemed like a good idea to me, so I passed it along. Please don't kill the messenger!

Just wanted to add a hardy well done and thanks to uncle_fungus. Complied and working great in Slackware64-current.

Forgot to talk abouot a problem I had first with 2.3.99.2 and still with 2.3.99.3:
When I launch FahMon and update the projects list, it fails. (says "Something went wrong")
I redo the update and it then works fine.

TIA!

Best regards,
François
