Can you believe that the address appears 5 times on the stack on Win95,
twice on ME, once on NT4.0?
Now that the method is stable (after 1.5.10 is released), couldn't we store

unknown case? Or are there many variations?

It works on NT4.0. Will test on 95 and ME this evening.
Do you recall what caused the warning?
