This is such an awesome program, but there is a problem when running the NewsTicker plug-in along with iTunes. It FREEZES! So if that problem could be fixed, it would be perfect. I will keep an eye out for an update, but absolutely love the software!!

Names, however unique, can't be trademarked, so "Tigger" really is probably safe so long as the developer doesn't associate it with Disney. The potential problem is associating an actual product with the name. I can write a novel titled "The Sun Also Rises" but might not be able to trademark that name for my program.

I think if I were the developer I would change it to "Trigger" - Version: 1.1, 4/10/2004 10:21AM PST

Trigger is a more discriptive name for the functions....AND it's safe!!!
