Perhaps my choice of words was a little off, but I'm sure one day in the future a new version will be available.

Yes, the section you quoted could indeed suggest an approaching release... Let's see

And -back to the failure to eject USB HDD topic- the "Launch folder windows in a separate process" option (in Win Explorer Folder Options) seems to be (if checked) another part of the problem... Any comment about that?

Lets say (for hypothetical reasons) I just so happen to create a new EjectUSB totally re-written from 3000 lines of code to about 500 lines, what would be the new name of this program?

No question about this one: Orgasm!

I should have mentioned that it should be a name for all ages But joby I will keep that one on my list for future program names.

And as I said it's hypothetical though I've kept it really simple for now because I want to go back to basics and create an application that stays within the original brief, close applications on a USB Drive.

Plus, this application is going to be Payware...I'm joking it will be Open Source of course.

I KNEW IT (forgive my euphoric outburst... I'll stick to the "hypothetical")

Well, while joby was clearly inspired by the "Ejec" part I would like to suggest a couple of (PG-approved) alternatives:

- SafEject
- RemoveUSB
- USBSR (where "SR" stands for "Safely Remove")
- Now-U-Can
- SafeYank (joby don't get any funny ideas )
- SmoothEject
- USBOut
- YouSB (I heard someone shouting something like that once in a parking garage )
- GreenLight
- USB Ejector

I also would like to add that (with all due respect and honors to Queue and whoever else is/was behind EjectUSB) if guinness totally re-wrote (quoting his words) the code and he is looking at a different name and (I would imagine) a different appearance, who is preventing him/her to release yet another USB eject application?

Apologies in advance if I am being out of line here, and guinness (or whoever else knows the "background" details of this story) please feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

Guinness, you definitely got the audience attention with this one! Hopefully you'll be soon taking care of the necessary issues/formalities which will lead you from the "hypothetical" into the "concrete" phase and you'll finally let us know what you have been up to
