I take it you're serious?  I got systray information (again...found out I'd
mis-filed it) this morning, so now the only thing I need to know is how to
remove a task from the Alt-TAB list.  Unless putting it in the systray does
that automatically--dunno, haven't -tried- the code yet.  Been working on
something for a client.

But that's the last real missing piece that I -need-.

What kind of signature?  Something protocol-specific, or something that you
install as a string in a config file on each machine?  Or more akin to gpg
signing, and toss it if it doesn't match the message?

Planned.

Off the top of my head?

$150 for up to 150 machines at a site, $0.50/machine for each machine over
150, in blocks of 10 machines.  Just a guess--nothing really backing that
pricing besides the fact that $1/machine sounds reasonable.  If you have
other suggestions, I'm open to them.

Assuming I do it and it works up to my expectations (ie., it's polished,
has no real bugaboos or irreconcilable eccentricities, etc. that make it
undesirable).  And the Alt-TAB listing is the last one of those of which I
know I need to address from a design standpoint.
