The goddamned bar just loops infinitely never telling the actual percentage. one that I know of like that is importing one MS Outlook .pst file into another. It probably could enumerate the folders and items before copying them so that it would know how many it needs to copy, but it doesn't, and just gives repeating 0-100% status bars over and over with no indication of the overall progress. --- ...
