the exe you had was, iirc build 129 a.k.a 4.20

and, it wasn't moving, killed it after about 20 mins with 0% still in there...
afaik, it stopped at the very first step.
I will probably have a new quick lookie at it later.

btw, kix has a habit of silently quitting when there is com-problem.
so, I think I will reduce your checks a little, just will get of the function calls (you could comment them out too).
this way you can trace where exactly is the problem.

cheers
