What Version of TurboPowers Async Pro are you using, as the current one is 4.07 and can be obtained at the Open Source Site http://sourceforge.net/projects/tpapro/ . The fixes may be their, if not I know some of the Old TurboPower Employee's and maybe I can get them to make the fixes that are necessary. Or you can send the fixes directly to them. And I think I would like to pursue Option 3.
