You probably used Linux? I had to test it on Windows, my XP even hardly 
moves mouse :D Linux is much better system...

I also prefer "exit()" with brackets. For this patch I just remembered

of false. Since all "exit"s in this function were without brackets, I 
decided to follow it. But I will happily change it to have brackets ;)
