I found the "what's new" section in this version interesting, because there is NOT one. Does it work now or are you just running it on versiontracker hoping to pull in a few more bucks from the last remaining people that are unaware that this is a non-working application. If you fixed it you would have stated so. Maybe you're in denial. Even though I owned a copy of this and Auction Hunter, Auction Hunter returns emails right away to work with me and actually fixed my problem and send me a test updated app that worked perfectly.

This person never replied to my email, and apparently doesn't care that this stopped working. Now comes out with and update with nothing done to it hoping to get a few more bucks.

Sounds like a crack head attitude to me.

I'm really not into trying this only to loose another auction, or to test it on a cheap auction ( eg bag of Balloons) that I have no use for because the shipping on ebay is so high now.

You've burned too many bridges, you need to get your application solid as a rock and work on repairing your public relations. If your not willing to do that for one reason or another then just go away.

I've tried everything and JBidWatcher as well and it didn't work. Thanks though.

A second thought. By the looks of it, you can't get any bidding software to work. By the looks of it, you have tried "Maxi Bidder, Auction Hunter, Silent sniper and JBidWatcher" and you couldn't get any of them to work, I would look at your system, setup, firewall, java or other security settings.

I reinstalled my system and brought it up to date, I've tried them ALL. Just lately Auction Hunter is working because they sent me an update. My firewall is fine. I use bittorrents and have them set up through port forwarding through my router and have them cleared in the firewall as well. Now as far as I know auction snipe apps don't use port forwarding unless one of Apple's buggy security updates fu cked it up, but as you can imagine loosing just one auction that was special that you will never see again is unacceptable and I've lost many and since it's been so long that these things have worked, as I keep trying them, it's wearing thin on my nerves.

And as far as Java, they are in the utilities folder but I don't mess with them cause I don't know about Java and shouldn't have to get an application to work. Plan simply easy to understand instructions, like a quick start setup. That's all that should be needed for the public. We are not computer programmers and everything I know about computers and applications came from foot work that I did researching using google. Most of the time you don't get anything helpful from the maker of an application except to dump it back in my lap as if I'm a total idiot or that it's my computer system. I'm not an idiot, my high school buddy's started Intel and most are still there.
I'm a 52 year old grand father of 4 that home schooled my kids and all are in collage, law firms, and business owners.
It's not like I'm some drunken idiot couped up in a trailer park with a third grade education that can't keep my computer clean and well maintained. All my life I've been the very best at what I did, and all the other workers or employees of my companies hated me for it, but at the end of the day they were proud that they were the best. I don't cut people slack. If you don't ride software makers to do their very best, you end up with MicroSoft. When I buy a copy of an application, I expect it do what it claims to do, and when writing an email to support, I expect an answer.
