About PingPartner:
"The program runs hidden, doing nothing except counting up to the next minute, when it loops through all the sites and does it's calculations, data updates and web page creation."
Clicking on the tray-icon brings it to the foreground. Right-click brings up a small menu in which you can also start the config program.
The Update button on the form allows you to bring in changes made by the PingPartnerConfig program without having to restart it.
