<![CDATA[Disables when Microsoft Word is open?]]>My f.lux works great with most applications on my MacBook pro, but seems to disable when I use Microsoft Word (but only Word, not Excel). This is quite annoying and harsh on my eyes as I am often going back and forth between a document and an internet browser. Does anyone know a fix??

It's ok now though.

For what it's worth, I'm running Windows 7 with no intentions to upgrade.

I know, complaining about free stuff, but argh!

EDIT: what the...? I just removed the one and only custom entry I had on the "disable" menu (a game) and everything went back to working order. Buggy blacklist implementation I guess?

Word is not checked on the exclusions list. Switching it to on and back to off doesn't solve the issue.

I guess that's just what happens when an application has no manual overrides and "just werks", except when it doesn't

Hope it will help... Pierre
