Hi list,

Regarding "GetTickCount()" [1] it might be a good idea to schedule
reboot of Windows boxes within 49.7 days, just in case..

Even M$ folks do misstakes [2] when they are using this function.

Hm, i'm wonder what this is used for.. ? ;-)

C:\WINDOWS\system32>find "GetTickCount" kernel32.dll

---------- KERNEL32.DLL
GetTickCount

C:\WINDOWS\system32>

Well, M$ never stop to suprise me.. ;-)

Have a nice day
