"Can't start, try again."

[PhilHibbs]

I've got some scripts that use the excellent library but they keep refusing to run. I get a dialog that says "Can't start, try again." with just an OK button, followed by a larger dialog saying that FastFind.dll is not loaded. The FastFInd.au3 and FastFind.dll files are in the same directory as my script. I can usually fix the problem by double-clicking on the FastFind.au3 script itself first, but not always.

I'm running Windows 7, and this has only started happening recently, I don't think I have changed any security settings.

Any suggestions?

Please post your script.

It was this FastFind test script:

#include "FastFind.au3"
AutoItSetOption("WinTitleMatchMode", 4)
$handle = WinActivate("[CLASS:Notepad]")
FFSetWnd($handle)
FFSnapShot(0, 0, 299, 149)

I think I've fixed it, when I right-clicked on the FastFind.dll and brought up Properties, there was a note at the bottom of the window "This file came from another computer and might be blocked to help protect this computer." I clicked the Unblock button and it hasn't happened since but it wasn't happening all the time anyway. I'll post again here if it never happens again. Or if it does. But not both.
