it doesn't seem to work properly...when installing certian programs, the hour-glass shows up for a little while, then nothing else happens. then, when i shut down my pc, the install screen for the proggy that i tried to install shows up, but it doesn't install cause the pc is shutting down. then i get an error popup that tells me that wowexec is having problems shutting down. please assist in any way possible. thanx.
