Hi Matt,

I own "The Programmer's Online Companion" as well, just haven't used it in
quite a while. I dug out the disk and tried using it. It worked with no
problems along side of "Help Meister" being toggled both on and off. Note
that I have version 2.0 of POLC and didn't "install" it, I just copied it
over to my hard drive. I was able to type, cmd-Click on items, etc.
 
Could you try using POLC and Help Meister with no other CPs or extensions?
Please e-mail me with your results (to save on net bandwidth). I'll do my
best to help you get HM running. Let me know what version of POLC you have
as well, ok?
 
As a side note to everyone: please, if you are using "Help Meister" and
have noticed any problems, let me know... EVEN IF YOU HAVEN'T SENT IN THE
$5 I REQUESTED FOR USAGE. (Note: so far, even though several people on the
net asked for an extension like "Help Meister", only TWO have sent in their
$5... yep, shareware is alive and kickin'!) Anyway, I will do my darndest
to get it working for ANYONE so that they can use it a while and decide
whether they like it! PROMISE.
