O.P. SendTo and Vista
I hate to inform everyone but the Vista Release is going to be very limited. The way this script works was either create a single shortcut in the Send To menu of Windows so that a window to select the contacts would pop up or be add a folder with shortcuts to each of your contacts.

Unfortunately Microsoft has removed the support for folders in the Send To menu. In short Microsoft has crippled my script (not their fault but still.)

Since I don't have a lot of time currently the release I may just have to disable the ability of showing all contacts on Vista.

You can count on this being back in a different way. Just not right away.

If you can't make folders in the sendto menu, how can you make it compatible without using the context menu?
If you can, (Y)thumbs up ;)
