On computers with installed windowblinds 3, the pb-generated exes cannot "see" the #PB_EventCloseWindow event.
A workaround ist to handle the #WM_CLOSE event in the code, so this is not a really big problem.
But i think, Fred could have a look a it for the next major release.

P.S. Even the PB-editor itself and his subwindows (debugger, variablewindow) seems to have this problem.

WindowBlind is a very hacky program which doesn't respect any coding rules and I don't think I will fix PB to be compatiable with it. WindowBlind must be fixed. I enjoyed lot of trouble when using WB (including system freeze and slowdown etc..).

You're absolutly right, Rings and Fred....
Just completely bombed out my XP installation with Windowblinds. What a crappy prog.
Forget the topic. And better forget Windowblinds.

As I've said sometimes, I've finally modified the event chains to be compatiable with WindowBlinds... Pfff . Now everyone would be happy.
