Default Re: PartyPoker 100% CPU usage

Ok, so after two PC crashes and a near epileptic fit watching the flashing message box, I have a fix:

<font class="small">Code:</font><hr /><pre>; PartyBets scrolling-spam killer
; ===============================
; Simply run this app to kill the CPU hogging PartyBets scrolling-spam bar.
; - CPU useage on my machine goes from 5%-25% spikes right down to constant 0%-1%!
; - Must be logged in for it to work (not sure why?).

SetTitleMatchMode 2

; Kill PartyBets spam window (WM_COMMAND = 0x111, ID_EXIT=2126).
PostMessage, 0x111 , 2126, 0, Internet Explorer_Server3, Poker Lobby
</pre><hr />

Basically just run the script after you have logged in and the PartyBets bar will quit (and leave a while rectangle where it was before).

It's amazing how much CPU that thing was using! On my dual core machine then Party at rest was regularly spiking at 25%+ (1/2 a core) and ran at about 5% all the time. After removing that hunk of [censored] then Party is resting nicely at 0%-1% all the time now!!! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Thanks Tankjoo, that was a good catch and without you spotting the correlation between the PartyBets bar and the high CPU I doubt anybody else would have found it! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Perhaps somebody can add my code into the DeMonster AHK script?
