To run ioGUI on vista/win7 you need to register the .ocx files.

Open up a command prompt using the "Run as administrator" option as you'll need admin rights.

cd c:\ioftpd\ioGUI
regsvr32 MSCOMCTL.OCX
regsvr32 MSWINSCK.OCX

Then try to start the GUI again. If that doesn't work you might need to copy the .ocx files to c:\windows\system32, cd to that dir, and try to register them there...

It's been a while since I've had to do it, but I think that's right.

ioGUI only tries to connect once. It's kinda stupid that way. I didn't write it, but it's better than nothing for some things. I added a delay feature to ioFTPD-start if you pass it a number it will wait that many seconds before spawning the GUI in the hopes the server has started by that point. ioGUI is based on the original .NET release way back when and won't work with newer compilers so it's kind of a tricky build which is why nobody has bothered to modify it and we are still using the old version.
