GlassToasts version 1
=====================
copyright (c) Andreas Verhoeven 2007


I. USE ON OWN RISK

You use this application on your own risk; the application dynamically loads itself into explorer.exe (for which you might need elevated rights / running as administrator). Because of this, the smallest mistake in this application will make explorer.exe go down. 

Please do not send reports to Microsoft about this, since it's a 3rd party hook that's causing problems.


II. DESCRIPTION

GlassToasts replaces the "ugly" WindowsXP style balloon notifications with the old-school LongHorn 4xxx style glassy toasts.

III. HOW?

Launch the application and use Start to start its functionality and Stop to stop its functionality. You can use Hide to hide the dialog.

The application knows a couple of commandline switches:
"-auto" will start the glass toasts directly without showing a dialog.
"-show" will show the dialog of a previously started GlassToast.exe
"-stop" will stop a previously started GlassToast.exe procedure. The application remains active
"-kill" will stop all previously started GlassToast.exe and unload them from memory.
