If I still have it. And if I do it's at work and I'm not. I'll see if I can find it tomorrow morning.

Heck, I might just play around with it tonight.

It's sad, I'm starting to code for recreational purposes. I think I need a 12-step program.

Anyway, here is the code I came up with. This works, but I had to comment out the timer.interval = 5000 line and replace it with a sleep 5.

code:
;
; BBChecker II - KiXtart Bulleting Board New Post Checker (RC-4)
;
; Dependencies (included in package):
; Wkix32 - KiXtart 4.11
; kixforms.dll - KiXForms (build 21)
; IE5 or higher
;
; -Lonkero
;
;todo's before release:
; parse takes the page as input.
; this way later update of var names is no problem.
;
; installation package
;
