MAMEHooker got getting messages when AttractMode run as admin?

Hi Howard et-al,

Firstly thanks so much for making your amazing mamehooker software available to the community!  I've written various programmes in the past which retrospectively hook games to get feedback outputs so know what goes into it :)

I've got Mamehooker working nicely with MAME (arcade64) and outputblaster, but am having an issue with Attract Mode and can't see to find the answer in the forums.  I'm running Mame, Mamehooker and Attract Mode all as admin, and mamehooker doesn't get feedback output from the game.  If I disable run as admin on attract mode, mamehooker gets the game output, but I lose the bezels etc that normally wrap the mame window when its launched by attaract mode.

Any ideas why this might be?  Is it something to do with this do you think, and do you know of any workaround?

Thanks so much in advance if you can help!
