First of all thanks for GrooveDownloaderWM!

Unfortunately, I could not download at all because I got an exception anytime I started a download.

So I looked for the cause. I found the problem here

public static void StartUp()
{
AppPath = Path.GetDirectoryName(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().CodeBase);
if (AppPath.StartsWith(@"file:\"))
{
AppPath = AppPath.Substring(6);
}
DownloadDir = Path.Combine(AppPath, "Downloads");
MyProject.Forms.frmGroove.Text = myProgram.longname + " - " + myProgram.version;
MyProject.Forms.frmGroove.Show();
}

in the AppPath initialization. I replaced it with my absolute location

public static void StartUp()
{
AppPath = @"\Storage Card\Program Files\GroovesharkDownloader";
DownloadDir = Path.Combine(AppPath, "Downloads");
MyProject.Forms.frmGroove.Text = myProgram.longname + " - " + myProgram.version;
MyProject.Forms.frmGroove.Show();
}

and now the program works.

Hope it helps for next release.

Thank you,

the problem is, that I do not check for special characters, that are not allowed in paths when I use them for the directory names/file names.
This problem will be fixed :), I was just to lazy :D.

If you find any more problems, please continue posting them here ;)
