There are currently at liest 2 bugs and possibly 3 in the mod. I will release an update when I have confirmed the third.
It will not work on a version 3.1

Nathan,
Thanks for your work on this mod, I have to say it's some of your best work yet and the read me is done exceptionally well (Not sure why you rated the install a 5 (but since I'm having problems maybe I'm just a dolt).
First a question : In the read me you wrote "TIP: Now is a good time to use that 'close forum' feature that is the left-most icon in the header row of the table on default.asp"
I have not or maybe just cannot find this option, It would be extremely helpfull.
Next the problem: After following the install for 3.3.03 I got to the section where you run "Click Update"
NOTE: If you get the error, that is fine, it only means that is fine, you must have had Active Users 3.5 installed.
Once I click the "Update" I get a page like this "Snitz Forum Modifications
Active Users 4.0 for Snitz 3.3.03 compatable

Now I understand that some tables cannot be adjusted by the script or some changes may need to made manually according to the message but after the install my forums will only give http 500 errors and I cannot get them to work at all without removing the mod.
If you need more info let me know I'll post all that can...
Thanks in advance, Geostorm
PS: The software download link you provided "Araneae" is an excellent tool and I recommend everyone download and support it.. /end shameless plug

The DBS errors all look benign. All are expected errors that arn't gonna hurt nothing.
The close forum feature is the lock in the very top row on default.asp and is not nessisary
As far as your 500 error. . . did you write down the error message? If you don't get the real message then see this page for instructions on how to turn off friendly messages --> http://www.morningz.com/mz/crystal/quick/friendly/friendly.asp
From your description of the problem sounds like you might have missed one or more of the file modifications.

Anyone got a link to a forum that is using this V4 mod, I'd like to see it working before I make changes to my forums.

I sent Nathan the Brazilian Portuguese (1046) translation. Thanks to RuiRib that did the Portuguese (2070) before and saved me a lot of work.

I figured as much as far as the errors were concerned and ooppss my bad on the 500 message but I was getting nailed with reports of it and couldn't think of why .
I will try the install again and let you know what happens...

Nathan,
The StrToDate change to fix the problem with UK date formats didn't work as expected. I've changed it and tested it with UK and US server date formats and seems to work OK, now.
Take a look at the new version: http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=25969
I think it should be included in your next release and european users should change it too.

Nathan, I require your assistance, I have noticed when installing your mod you included an icon for ICQ, no offense but I found it a bit annoying since the rest of my forum uses the active status Icon from Mirabilis, as a result I have modified your code and placed the following in place of the "ICQ" lines
if strICQ = "1" and Trim(arrAM(9,c)) <> "" then response.write " <a href=""JavaScript:openWindow('pop_messengers.asp?mode=ICQ&ICQ=" & ChkString(arrAM(9,c), "JSurlpath") & "&M_NAME=" & ChkString(arrAM(1,c), "display") & "')""><img src=""http://online.mirabilis.com/scripts/online.dll?icq=" & chkstring(arrAM(9,c), "JSurlpath") & "&img=5"" height=""15"" width=""15"" alt=""" & fLang(strLangMOD_Ls3kAU_01450) & " " & ChkString(arrAM(1,c), "display") & " an ICQ Message"" border=""0"" align=""absmiddle"" hspace=""0""></a>" & vbNewLine end if
but I have an issue, I have added and compensated to allow for the MSN icon as well, and as poor as it might sound.... I cant get the vbscript to work. Any way I can send you the file to look at so I can proceed?

The MSN icon should be just like the AOL icon or Y! icon. . .
The ICQ icon was done that way for verion 3.4 compatability. The static ICQ icon is now used because the dynamic ICQ icons was causing forum pages to lag really badly.

in placing the icon your correct, it is very similar in property to Y! and AOL the problem I have is the "clicking function" to add the member to your contact list, th original MSN mod I am modling after uses a vbscript to do this and that is where I am having my trouble
