     For the first and only time, all those powerful Win32 APIs at one place! Yeah.. if you want to create powerful Windows software... these set of classes I've attached lets you exploit every bit of Windows. It contains 10 classes!!! with over dozens of properties and methods in each of them. The classes are: 1)Accessibility 2)Font 3)Keyboard 4)MemoryStatus 5)Mouse 6)NonClientMetrics 7)PowerStatus 8)SystemColors 9)SystemInfo. Altogether, there are over 150 written functions for you!! A must have if you are a serious Windows programmer. Please vote as I've put alot of time an effort into this...

I gave you a good rating on the code, 
however, you need to change the title, 
do you know what an exploit is? I've 
looked up the dictionary definition for 
you: A security hole or an instance of 
taking advantage of a security hole.  
these are not security holes, you can 
do a lot of the stuff your program does 
with the explorer shell.

There are other definitions of the word 
'exploit'. It's not such an 
inappropriate name.

I thought we were suppose to discuss 
the functionality and not the name.. 
are all the APIs working.. Some will 
only work on Windows 2000 and above. 
Are there any problems.. Yes, this took 
me a whole lot of time to do. I've 
tested each API but if you find any 
problem, please tell me.

Great player.  Some comments:
1) Code 
is hard to read when the controls have 
their generic names.  I used the 
Search/Replace dialog to replace every 
instance of Image3 with imgPlay for 
ease of following code. Also, I liike 
my code indented to facilitate 
following program logic.  I use an 
indispensable freeware addin called 
Smart Indenter, available at 
http://www.bmsltd.co.uk/Indenter/Default
.htm
2) Perhaps add a couple of 
sliders for Volume & Playback status.  
3) While the API method is fine, it 
has the same drawback as many other MP3 
players, namely slow to start because 
the entire MP3 is loaded into memory 
before the song starts.  There are 
other technologies (XAudio & WinAmp 
which uses some other similar engine) 
which start playback immediately 
because the music is 'streamed'.  If 
interested, try the developer page at 
www.winamp.com.  Also, have a look at 
www.multimediasoft.com and 
www.playmediasystems.com whose players 
use XAudio.
Once again, great player 
& coding.

5 from me just for the mousekeys 
section of the accessibility class.  
Severe shortage of mice in the test lab 
here, so mousekeys is used often.  But, 
whenever we set up new machines, it is 
one of the features we often forget to 
turn on when making the ghost images :( 
Very neat code too.

This is Some Chunk of Code.
Superb 
Cheers, it's exactly what I 
needed.
I've seen companies wanting 
$500 dollars for an exe that does 
exactly the same thing. Mabey you 
should have marketed it.

Great code! I've done something I can't 
correct, though - using FixNCM(), I've 
altered ncm.BorderWidth to 0 then back 
to normal. The problem is that my Task 
Bar icons, Title Bar icons and 
Min/Max/Close buttons are now 
approximately 4 pixels by 4 
pixels...
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Whoa, that is some awesome coding man!

these classes just to show people what 
they can do! Good job, you get exelent

Thanks all for all the appreciation. In 
March, I hope to realease a fully 
functional windows tweaker based on 
this work. If anyone wants to help me, 
i would greatly appreciate it. I myself 
don't have the stamena to write all the 
code myself.

Just one problem I have noticed.  Your 
code is not 100% compatible with VB5.  
You prepared it in VB6 which inserts 
certain property entries into the 
modules that cause loading errors 
(Retained value in the vbp file) or 
compile errors (first 6 lines of your 
class module files).  You may wish to 
find a converter file and add a 
reference to it for those of us still 
cursed to be running VB5.
