Am running Vista SP1 Business and UltraMon 3.03 Beta.
After the system has been running for several hours, I routinely get a Runtime error in UltraMon when the system is shut down. The error box appears during the shutdown process. Sometimes it is UltraMon.exe; other times it is UltraMonUIAcc.exe. I've also seen it happen when doing a reboot, but it is not as frequent as during a full shutdown. No error event shows up in Event Viewer.
Other than that, UltraMon 3.0.3 Beta seems to be working well.

I'm currently looking into a similar issue, would you be interested in running a test version of UltraMon.exe to see if the problem is fixed?

Yes, I would be more than happy to run a test version to see if it resolves the runtime issue. Just give me a download link and I'll try it.

I have uploaded the test version:
32-bit: um_3.0.3_dbg2_x32.zip
64-bit: um_3.0.3_dbg2_x64.zip
To install the file, close UltraMon, go to C:\Program Files\UltraMon and create a backup of UltraMon.exe, then extract the downloaded ZIP file to the UltraMon folder and replace the existing UltraMon.exe.
With the test version you should get a regular UltraMon error instead of the generic crash message, this should help with further troubleshooting.

I have the test version installed. A new error window appears and it states that Ultramon.exe has encountered a fatal error. However, the shutdown continues so quickly that I cannot copy down all the info fast enough.
Is there a place that UltraMon writes this error report? I don't have any entry in the Event Viewer concerning this error.

I did pickup "Last Error=1400" on a shutdown error window of UltraMonUI.exe.

I have uploaded a new version which also writes errors to C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Realtime Soft\UltraMon\Error.log:
32-bit: um_3.0.3_dbg3_x32.zip
64-bit: um_3.0.3_dbg3_x64.zip

Sorry about that, still had some test code in there. I have updated the files (same file names).

Its probabaly because Im running windows 7.

I'm going to look into Windows 7 support for the 3.0.6 release.
Disabling the window buttons in the registry will allow you to use UltraMon, to do this run regedit.exe, go to 'HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Realtime Soft\UltraMon\<version>\Window Buttons', then change the value of 'Maximize to Desktop Button' and 'Move Window Button' from one to zero.

the following works for me on windows 7
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Realtime Soft\UltraMon\3.0.5\Window Buttons]
"Move Window Button"=dword:00000000
"Maximize to Desktop Button"=dword:00000000
"Button Spacing"=dword:ffffffff
"Don't Add Buttons to Dialogs"=dword:00000001
