Great program, here's a simple suggestion:
For HTPC use, many people are using their primary monitor for navigation, volume control, etc. and the second monitor for programs like PowerDVD, WinDVD, Theatertek, etc.
My main problems is the need to turn off the "navigation" monitor manually in order to reduce the light from the monitor which is a nuisance with a projector.
Your screen saver section would be greatly enhanced with the ability to blank one screen while the other is uninterrupted. Furthermore allowing this to be triggered by parking the mouse on a particular corner would be useful.
Even better than screen blanking would be to allow the monitor to go into standby mode. This would eliminate all ambient light until you need the monitor again.
I'm not even sure if any of this is possible with the windows operating system and its interaction with video cards...
thanks!

Thanks for the suggestion, will be considered for UltraMon 3.
Blanking the monitor would certainly be possible, but I'm not sure if a single monitor can be put on standby via software.

Would it be possible to put into standby, all monitors on a single card?

As far as UltraMon is concerned this would be the same as putting only a single monitor on standby.
The only thing which can be done easily is putting all monitors connected to the system on standby.

If this could be accomplished (even if it neccessitated dual video cards rather than a dual head unit) it would be great. I'll keep my fingers crossed.
