Hello everybody
This is my first post, although I've been "using" QM for 3 years now.
I have this probably trivial problem which I have been trying to solve but don't seem to be able to.
I have to manually start my computer's boradband connection whenever the computer is turned on. The boradband is launched by a program supplied by the service provider. A window pops up and I just click "connect" and that's it.
So I thought I'd just put a simple macro in the start-up folder, call the connection program and then have QM click "connect" (or key in the short-cut key).
The irritating thing is that the window keeps on being de-focussed. This is probably caused by other programs still loading in the background, the greatest culprit is probably the McAfee anti-virus software.
I have tried what I know, which is frightfully little, to no avail.
Help! Thank you all in advance.
