How is it I've never heard of this before? It looks like a great tool.
The website needs a bit of work however. It's not pruning old data (I'm seeing things from 2008) and the inability to select what region you want to check without logging in is a PITA. All the data in the world won't help if your website sucks.

Thanks for the hard work, Ix.
Just to add to what I've said before, now that I've had some time to play with the uploader some more I have some advice.
1) There seems to be a bug in the "Start with Windows" option. At one point I had two Run keys in the registry for the Uploader; I suspect this has to do with said option writing the keys slightly differently depending on whether it was written by the installer or by the application itself. In other words, the client doesn't seem to recognize when the installer has already written a Run key to have the client load with Windows.
2) The client needs a switch (in the CLI sense) to start up minimized. Right now when the client is set to load with Windows, it loads as a normal (windowed) application and needs to be minimized by the user to get it out of the way. It would probably be better for the client to start up minimized, hence the need for a switch and for the client to write a Run key with that switch.

J'i Ta- is your PC running a 64-bit OS too? That might be what's causing it- if it is, we'll get a 64-bit build up and available ASAP.
I get the same error and also run Windows Vista 64.
FWIW I have no issues on Vista 64.

3) We obfuscate our code because we are aware that CCP does not everyone and their dog to have a cache reader. Not our decision.
If at some point it interests you, I'd like to talk to you (or whoever wrote the cache-scraping stuff) about putting together an application for me as an ISK-paid job. I've always wanted to do a version of my influence map for the Chinese EVE server (Serenity) but they do not have an API server like we do. I would need to sc**** the cache files for the sovereignty data and the alliance list, and while Paladin Vent figured this out, he did not leave behind the code to do this and I do not have the kind of knowledge needed to implement this myself.
If it's something you're interested in, drop me an EVEmail and we can talk.
