I'd guess you have established ways to promote AutoHotkey.

But I just made a post on the Tech Support Guy forum to let people know about AutoHotkey. It is the largest help and support forum that I know.

The thread that I posted this in is one of the largest threads on the board and draws a lot of interest from people looking for excellent software packages they can use.

Hello Guest.

Thanks very much. I fixed the second error now.

I think the reason for the problem with the link is because I set the number of posts per page to 75 which is the largest possible. I'm guessing that will cause a problem for anyone else who has a different setting and tries to use the link I provided.

I set it to 75 because I like to be able to see as many posts as possible on a given page and I prefer to avoid a lot of page turning when I read a thread.

But how did you manage to come up with the correct number fot the post count? I can't see how you did that. It's obviously the right answer. But, can you explain to me how you did it? Can you please explain how you came up with #post 5368882 in your link?

When I right-clicked on your pretty-looking link, I saw the following info:

366118-favorite-freeware-97.html#post5368882
Protocol: HyperText Transfer Protocol
Type: html#post5368882
Address(URL):http://forums.techguy.org/tech-tips-tricks/366118-favorite-freeware-97.html#post5368882

But, how did you ever manage to find the number5368882 ?

@JDN
My guess without visiting the page:
If you move the mouse over the quote-button you'll see the number of the post in the statusbar Very Happy

Thanks very much to Guest and all.

Very helpful indeed.

But, for some reason, I feel like when I'm speaking to "Guest", I feel like Vince Vaughn from the movied, The Sum of All Fears where he's talking to someone over the phone but he can't know their identity.

Oh well, I suppose it's only fair since I have two Identities (I've been BluxMax on many boards for a long time ... heh heh).

But seriously - thanks very much.

As to what "some problem" was, when I tried to install Tor without having Firefox installed, Tor gave me some error message with a big Red X making it look like there was something critical wrong. It said the reason for the message was that Firefox was not installed. But then it ended the installation and all seemed to be OK.

But then, when I tried to start Tor later on, it issued some other warning message. I'm sorry but I didn't understand the details of that message.
