Found this on some site a while ago...seems quite handy. Maybe you guys can put it to good use

if i remember well about this script, it's not multithread since each time a func is called entire script is blocked.

the only way to do MT in autoit is to use a dll with code Inside that will be executed in different thread.

AutoIt does not/will never support multi-threading.

See >this topic and this page.

Br, FireFox.
