What I mean is that the current version runs fine on all Systems using the Win32-API (what a name). If we add the extra stuff for W2000 we might run into problems with other Windows versions. I have no idea how long the extra gathering takes, so this was just a guess. If you can do tests using your patch on all Windows platforms (including ME) and everything is fine, I will re-consider to add this patch.
