As soon as I start workrave I get 100% cpu usage. The program is also very slow overall, for example 
it takes about 15 seconds for the program shows it's main window when I start it. And the micropause 
windows sometimes appear when the pause is already over.

Hmm, I tested W98 support using VMWare, which emulates W98 on top of my real
operating system. It seemed to work, but as VMWare emulates the OS it may have
given me a false impression of how well it actually performs. I should get me a
real W98 box... I cannot do much about it for now. 

Kees-Jan, have you tested Workrave on Windows ME already?

No, I haven't
Though with this particular bug, it wouldn't help much. My ME installation
reports 100% processor usage more often than not. I'm not even worried any more.
After all, it's Windows :-)

Outdated, no incidents reported with newer versions...

Still not fixed in pre-1.4 exe; occurs on Windows XP
