If a newbie is common enough with AHK to do simply things by himself and not only retyping (or copying) what another user wrote he can easily use your tips!

I like the design of your posts.

I think the clock.ico-error has to be found in the file itself. I am not able to view it with software! It can't be opened with Paint (can't open ico's, but maybe it isn't a really icon) and also not with an icon-viewer. Also trying to extract any icons show only the normal standard "no programm assigned to this format" icon. Maybe you could check if anything is corrupt there...

I haven't tested this script, I using the link you gave, I could download the icon: Firefox displayed it OK, and after a Save As..., I got a regular icon displayable with IrfanView.
Did you tried to download it again?

It seems the "UrlDownloadToFile" does something strange at my pc!
I have downloaded the clock.ico by using the link specified an I got a 766 Byte File which can be used well in script (no error).
With "UrlDownloadToFile" I get a 2.384 ByteFile of unknown format...

Could someone test this behaviour at his pc, too? I am using Version 1.0.42.07.

I ran the line you gave:
URLDownloadToFile,http://file.autohotkey.net/goyyah/Tips-N-Tricks/TaskBar/Clock.ico,Clock.ico
I got that 766 byte file, displayed OK.
Isn't that you that have IE7beta? URLDownloadToFile is based on IE code, so a bug in IE may mean a but in the command.

I am using IE 6.0.2900.2180 and normally I am using Firefox...
Seems not to be a general bug. I think I'll test it at home. Maybe there is some problem with our router or something like this...

I tested with WIN XP Pro and IE 6.0.2600.0000 and still not able to reproduce the error.

Is the errorlevel 0 after successful download ?

Also trying the following:

Code:
URLDownloadToFile, http://file.autohotkey.net/goyyah/Tips-N-Tricks/TaskBar/Clock.bmp, Clock.ico


and please revert back. I want to know whether this makes any difference!

Regards , Smile

I have tested it at home now (same AHK-Version) and it works without any problems. I think it's some problem of our high security (software-development).

All fine Smile

The countdown display is a good idea - I'm almost tempted to switch to the Windows XP theme for the wider start button Laughing As I recall, someone else made use of an extra toolbar in the taskbar (like the Quicklaunch bar) to reserve space for their display, so I might give that a try too.

Thx to Goyyah for posting it Smile
I am using it for several notifications and I think it will be extended soon.
Also Thx to Laszlo for the core-code of the Countdown-Timer.

How to Refresh " Icons Display " in System Tray ?
http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=55641#55641

From a script - we can Terminate a Process through Process Close, command.
However, the Icon of the terminated process is displayed on the "Tray Notification Area"
unless the mouse is hovered over the Icon.

I post the following code that should handle the Mouse-Over-SystemTray for "any size" and "any position" taskbar

But, I feel that this is NOT a perfect work around. ImageSearch is a powerful command that should
be used for this purpose but unfortunately I could not make a working script (till this date of posting).

It will be very useful if the script is modifed using ImageSearch. Any takers?
