Achim,
That was quick! Some comments...

1. The 'Apply' button is confusing. Is there any reason to have it there?
2. 'OK' not 'Ok' on the 'OK' button.
3. There is no sign of the field for reconfiguring the Firebird root path.
4. No reason to include Win95/98/ME in the caption for the 'Run as
application' field as, for these platforms, there is no choice. If it's
intended for the applet to be available on these plats, the "Service" stuff
should be invisible. Is that the case? (I can't test it).
5. The applet should probably read and obey the Guardian settings. I
noticed that, on restarting, it started only the server, not the Guardian
(although it did STOP the Guardian).

cheers,
