I noticed this problem was fixed in a much earlier version of Snarfer, but still seems to haunt me every time I start up Windows. My details:

WinXP Professional
Snarfer 1.02

When I shutdown windows, I don't generally first shut down Snarfer as well (I have it run automatically as I check it a number of times during the day). Every time I start up Windows, though, I get the message that Snarfer was not shut down properly and asks if I want it to check files. I click yes, and it checks 28 files.

Any ideas on what the problem might be?

Sorry if this was already answered, but all I found was something about this bug being fixed in version 0.5.

Cheers!

I have the same problem as wortel121.
Is anyone going to address this issue?

99.99% of time there is no issue and it's just Snarfer letting you know it was shutdown while doing tasks.  If Snarfer is grabbing feeds at time of shutdown you may see this message.  If you have tons of feeds, a slower connection, and/or set refreshing time to less than an hour then odds are you'll be shutting down Snarfer while it's working.  You can hit cancel and Snarfer won't check database before starting.

Try simply shutting down Snarfer (while activity dialog in lower right corner is not displaying activity).  Then restart Snarfer, does message dialog appear?
