Version 1.09 broke album art for me

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install version 1.09 of the plug-in.
2. Start Winamp and start playing a song.
3. Hold mouse over the taskbar button and you'll see the play control
buttons, but no album art and no song title.

I expected to see the album art with the info I configured. Instead I see
the normal preview for WinAMP as if the plug-in was not installed.

What version of Winamp are you using? What plugin version? On what
operating system?
Winamp 5.56, plugin 1.09 on Windows 7 x64.

Please provide any additional information below.

Meh, it's obvious... Everything has to break, even if I didn't touch them...
Anyways, I'm not home all weekend, so can't look into it now.

Okay, I'm back and I need more info on this one... Did you try reinstall or 
w/e? It
doesn't find any album art? Tried with local files / embedded picture / ID3 / 
APE tag?

I just tried a re-install, but that didn't fix anything. I tried downgrading to 
1.08,
but that didn't seem to work anymore either. I deleted the settings and tried, 
still
no go.

So far I've seen not a single MP3 where the album art worked, although the 
Winamp
album art window itself does show the album art correctly.
I have all the album art embedded in the ID3 tag of the MP3 file.

Okay, that's disturbing ... how come 1.08 doesn't work anymore? :/
I could do a "special" plug-in, that would write out each step to a file, and 
see
what's wrong, because like this i'm like ... no idea what's going on.

Seeing as how 1.08 used to work, but now stopped, maybe I should try to reboot. 
I
hibernate my machine every time, so I hardly get any reboots. Last time with 
1.08 I
noticed weird things happing, like windows from other programs having drawing
artifacts and weird control positioning. I've had that before so I had an idea 
and
when I took a look in the task manager it was confirmed: Winamp was using 
10.000 GDI
objects. So I guess 1.08 has a serious resource leak. I then restarted Winamp 
and
then it told me about 1.09. But I never rebooted. I will try that now.

I've checked the leak issue several times, since I had a suspicion about it, 
but at
that time it seemed okay. 
Btw, how did you check those GDI objects? :/

Reboot seemed to have fixed it. The GDI subsystem must've been frakked or 
something.
I checked the GDI object usage through the standard task manager. Go to the
"Processes" tab. Then open the "View" menu and click "Select columns". From 
there you
can add all kinds of interesting metrics. One of them is "GDI Objects".
Another way is to use the Performance Monitor. You can see a history through 
that
tool, or you can use my favourite tool: Process Explorer.

Found all memory leaks, and fixed them in 1.10.
Thanks for noticing and reporting this :)
