The IE[SUPER]LABEL "Bug"

It you have used the "ie super label" and set is to transparent you notice a bug that copys the screen before you run your program and dosn't refresh afterwards. So you can create some kick ass screen savers (or anything of a likeness) from exploing the bug. the only problem is that the bug is very buggy and crashes on 75% of computers 3 out of 4 times so if anyone knows of a thing like this that isn't as crash happy please let me know.

I don't know the "ie super label" , but I use the following code to copy the screen.

First set your apps startup property to Sub Main and set your forms borderstyle to none.
Add a standard module with this code:

Option Explicit
Private Declare Function GetWindowDC Lib "user32" (ByVal Hwnd As Long) As Long
Private Declare Function ReleaseDC Lib "user32" (ByVal Hwnd As Long, ByVal hdc As Long) As Long
Private Declare Function BitBlt Lib "gdi32" (ByVal hDCDest As Long, ByVal XDest As Long, ByVal YDest As Long, ByVal nWidth As Long, ByVal nHeight As Long, ByVal hDCSrc As Long, ByVal XSrc As Long, ByVal YSrc As Long, ByVal dwRop As Long) As Long
Private Declare Function GetDesktopWindow Lib "user32" () As Long

Sub Main()
    Load Form1
    Form1.AutoRedraw = True
    Call CopyScreen(Form1)
    Form1.Show
End Sub
Public Sub CopyScreen(DestForm As Form)
    Dim retVal As Long
    Dim hWndDesk As Long
    Dim hDCDesk As Long
    
    Dim WidthDesk As Long
    Dim HeightDesk As Long

    'define the screen coordinates (upper
    'corner (0,0) and lower corner (Width, Height)
    WidthDesk = Screen.Width \ Screen.TwipsPerPixelX
    HeightDesk = Screen.Height \ Screen.TwipsPerPixelY
     
    'get the desktop handle and device context
    hWndDesk = GetDesktopWindow()
    hDCDesk = GetWindowDC(hWndDesk)
     
    'copy the desktop to the form
    retVal = BitBlt(DestForm.hdc, 0, 0, WidthDesk, HeightDesk, hDCDesk, 0, 0, vbSrcCopy)
    retVal = ReleaseDC(hWndDesk, hDCDesk)
End Sub

And add the following code to your forms module

Option Explicit

Private Sub Form_Load()
    Me.Top = 0
    Me.Left = 0
    Me.Width = Screen.Width
    Me.Height = Screen.Height
End Sub

Private Sub Form_DblClick()
    Unload Me
End Sub

It is kind of like this... the screen cap part. But after the screen cap the form dosen't refresh (only the mouse dose) so if you move a windows over the form you'd get 100 copys of what the form looked like (depens on hwo fast you move the window over the form.) see if you can find the ielabel.ocx,when loaded in vb it's called ie super label. Comes with IE4 i think or just go to microsoft's site and download it.
