    [VB6/VB10] - VB Forums Ticker/Monitor

    See post #4 for updated (VB10) version.

    The (VB6) version below was based on older forum software.
    I took another crack at this application, this one takes a different approach at the html parsing.
    v2.03 - Show how many members/guests online, Other minor changes.
