I've seen this program and I've downloaded it several times, dragging a copy of the SK folder onto my desktop and placing it in it. At first its a archive file meaning its extract-able. But I've looked around AND seen a tutorial and now I know for sure it runs on Java. So I right clicked and clicked properties and changed the program to Java. I opened it again and a quick cmd box with code on it popped out in a small window and disappeared in a split second (command line). I saw two others who had this problem and it got fixed automatically. However for me nothing is happening. Oh yea and I have tried extracting the file, its just a bunch of files used in the program. Also I do not know what the command line is, its really quick. And yes I am paying for fix!!!
Just place your ign with the fix and who knows maybe you will be getting cr in your mail pretty soon!
Spiral Spy! Paying For Successful Fix
He must be a DOS User or a Windows 95 or 98 ehehehehe i used to do that way back in DOS and Win95
What he's doing is following my instructions on the guide I made for Spiral Spy, the program is very sensitive and can actually alter game files for Spiral Knights, I found this out when I accidentally broke my game and had to reinstall SK. As I say in my guide, by copying all the files from SK into a new folder somewhere else and putting Spiral Spy in there you avoid actually affecting the files that the game uses when you play.
I don't know whats going wrong unfortunately, all I did was download Spiral Spy and drop the program in the separate SK folder I use, never had any problems, perhaps the problem here is your doing too much, that's my take at least.
i'll put a screenshot of the folder where the program goes. make sure yours has the same files in it to know it's right.

If win 7/vista try admin rights. Update java.
Why are you copying the SK folder to desk top? Just put the Spiral spy file in the SK folder and either navigate to it and double click it, or creat a shortcut to your desktop.
