Hello, Corinna,

Interesting on that problem is, that it works fine, if id.exe is executed 
with high frequency one after another.

Is it possible, that you provide a tool like id.exe which can be kept in 
memory permanantly? Maybe that would be a workaround for the problem...

Thanks and 

best regards

Carsten Porzler
