    Startup Status: connect after connect

    Hey there,
    i could not find any Startup Status thread yet. That's why I post it here, I suppose the Variables thread not to be the right thread for this though UnregistereD is the developer of Startup Status too, right? :)

    I'd like him to add options to define a startup connecting order for the plugins as the following:

    Yahoo -> online
    - after online: delay 5s -
    MSN -> online
    - after online: delay 9s -
    AOL -> online
    ...

    the delays should be configurable, because they should be messed on each users contactlist (ICQ got more contacts than MSN, so ICQ needs more time for connecting even after being markes as Online).

    at the moment all protocols are connecting at one time.. this causes all protocols to trouble connection errors for me. so i have to connect my protocols the descripted way "connect after connect".. would be cool if any plugin could do this automatically.. best Startus Status, cause it got those other functions that are usefull too.

    I'll consider this, but I recommend you to check where the connection errors come from. Do other people also suffer from these kind of problems?

    i suppose them to be from my software firewall (GData AntiVirKit), it crashes many applications... as any other firewall (Symantec, McAffee,..) before did too. It seems to restrict outgoing connections to a limit.
