I use MS Foldershare to sync my My Documents folder with several computers.

It appears that GBridge is hard wired to write its log files in the My Documents folder.

When I boot Windows, Gbridge and Foldershare get into a war of error message dialog boxes and I have to stop one of the them.

May I suggest that users be allowed to put Gbridge log files wherever they please...

Sorry for inconvenience.

It is an oversight in design. We plan to move the logs to other location in the next. The tentative plan is:
Documents and Settings\<user name>\Application Data\Gbridge . We could have let the user configure it, just worried that will complicate the user interface.

BTW, What kind of error message boxes you got from Gbridge and Foldershare ?

please upgrade to latest release 1.1.1126 (not for direct download yet, click help->"check for upgrade" to get it). the log dir has been changed to "Documents and Settings\<user name>\Application Data\Gbridge"
