So, I went back to BHW where this software was given away and found this in the thread for steps to hope fully take care of X-Spinner being recognized by third party software:
Don't get me wrong. I think this would be awesome if it does work and it seems like a minor problem, but one that is frustrating. So, we'll see what happens.
Will test and return.
Code:
1. Close X-Spinner
2. Follow this guide to enable the Take Ownership option in the right-click menu.
3. Go to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc
4. Right-click the hosts file and click Take Ownership
5. Open notepad in admin mode (type notepad in start and press ctrl+shift+enter).
6. Open the hosts file via this notepad
7. Enter the required entries and save (it should save just like that instead of asking you to save as a new file).
8. CLOSE NOTEPAD
9. Open CMD in Admin mode (type CMD in start and press ctrl+shift+enter).
10. Type in "ipconfig /flushdns" and press enter
11. Type in "nbtstat -R" and press enter
12. Now go and check if the sites open in IE (they shouldn't open).
13. Start the X-Spinner service and go to IE and try to visit the sites - you will get a message from X-Spinner to use the POST command, which means the API is working.
14. You can now use a software to interface with API and spin to your heart's content!
Don't get me wrong. I think this would be awesome if it does work and it seems like a minor problem, but one that is frustrating. So, we'll see what happens.
