V1.40a - March 2001           
* Fixed - When previewing the Disolve transitions in settings the image  was not transitioning to the
full preview size.

* Fixed - The program Dcat Registry Remover would not remove the screen savers registry entries.

* Fixed - When running the screen saver for the first time when the images directory has not been
set, the screen saver would at this point ask for a directory. The screen saver would then crash with
an error.

* Fixed - When in Desktop mode with password protect enabled the password would be requested
twice when exiting the screen saver.

V1.40 - March 2001            
* The Screen Saver is no longer as CPU intensive as the previous versions.

* Added support for MP3 audio files.

* The computer can be shut down, restarted or logged off from within the screen saver.

* The screen saver can be sent to/from the Traybar.

* The last image that the screen saver displayed can be set as the computer's wallpaper.

* Added an Audio Controller window which allows the audio to be muted, stopped, paused, volume
adjusted and the fade between the speakers adjusted.

* Added more Audio options which are set in the settings. Now the Speaker fade can be set, the
volume level can be set, Sample rate, channel and resolution can also be set.

* Improved the way that the audio is handled. Simply select "Always Play Audio" in the settings for
the audio to play.

* Fixed bug where the images directory could not be set to the root directory.

* Now Windows NT and 2000 users have the Desktop and Window mode. (Window mode works
differently on NT/2000) 

* Improved the method used to display the Options window.

* Screen Saver can be closed by Keyboard, Mouse click,  Mouse move or a combination of all three.

V1.33 - October 2000               
* When the password dialogue box was on display and it was then moved to a new position. It would
expose the desktop and show whatever was on the screen when the screen saver started running.
This has been fixed.

V1.32 - August 2000
* If the transition delay was set for a time greater than 30 seconds the program on Windows 95/98
systems would lock the computer. On Windows NT/2000 the program itself would crash with a
runtime error. This has now been corrected.

* The transition will now start straight away. When clicking preview in the Display Properties the
transition would wait the length of the Transition Delay. This was also the case when the screen saver
was started but was not as noticeable.

* Changed to Visual Basic 6. This version now requires the VB6.0 runtime module.
V1.31 - July 2000
* You may now choose to have the screen saver deactivate (stop running) by using either the mouse
and/or the keyboard. In Previous versions you could not select one or the other, both the keyboard
and the mouse would stop the screen saver.
V1.30 - June 2000
* The screen saver can now be run in two modes the first mode (Desktop) displays the images
covering the full desktop while in  the second mode (Window) the screen saver can be run in a
window set to any size which allows it to be viewed while working in another program.

* Images can now be displayed in a random order.

* Added a more comprehensive settings choice. This means you can now :-
    -       preview each individual transition.
   -       create your own transition list from the available transitions.
   -       slow down transition speed to suit the speed of your computer.
   -       select how the images are displayed (in order or random).
   -       select how to use transitions (in order or random).
 
* Added audio

* Added  image to Display Properties window.

* Fixed password management.

* All transitions now expand/compress the image to match the current screen resolution in desktop
mode or the size off the window in Window Mode.

* Can now match transitions to images.

* Screen saver has now been tested for Windows 2000 Compatibility

V1.21a - July 1999
* Corrected fault in the install process.  A bug in the install process caused the program to exit on
Windows NT systems with a run time error.

V1.21  - June 1999 
* The screen saver will now stop running when any key is pressed. Previous versions only recognized
the main keys (not Tab, Alt, End etc).Using the Ctrl - Alt -Del  keys to bypass the password is now no
longer possible ( The keys have been disabled. )

* The screen saver is now  installed  into the System directory on Windows 95/98 and into the
System32 directory on Windows NT. The previous versions installed into the root directory. I had a 
report of an NT system not being able to access the screen saver via the desktop's Display Properties
window when the screen saver was in the root directory. Moving the screen saver to System(95/98) /
System32(NT) seems to have corrected this.

V1.20b - May 1999  
* Removed Visual Basic 5.0  runtime files from the distribution package.

V1.20a - Mar 1999 
* Minor changes to code.

V1.20   - Feb 1999 
* First public release of the program.
