Add the ability to Save Settings #11

Just what it says....  Really need the option to save our settings, because I 
want to make the program auto-start with windows (which by the way can be 
another feature request, but low priority because we can do it ourselves).

I really need your program to do this because there is a known issue with 
latest generation Wireless cards and certain routers with the connection 
dropping, and with certain settings, a particular driver and your program 
pinging a site every second I'm able to stay connected.  Your program allows me 
to use the internet without dropping every couple of minutes. (3 new computers 
btw had this issue all different manufacturers and wireless cards)

BTW, I tried to find another program like yours, but none would work at least 
on Windows 8.1 (yours does), ping wouldn't go through or something.  Could be 
they are using different port or something's that's blocked.  Anyway, do you 
know of a simple Win8 compatible like yours that will save settings?

Thanks

I came in here to add this request, and I was glad that someone else had 
already posted. I run this application everyday because I need to be notified 
as soon as there is an internet failure (my systems interact with the financial 
markets). I would love to be able to put this app in the startup folder and 
have it started automatically with Windows.

On another note, it would also be nice to 'sort' the list so we would have 
quickly access to the 'disconnection messages'... I find it very hard to scroll 
to the points in which there was a disconnection. Another option would be a 
check box to show just the disconnection messages.

Thanks a lot for a great utility...

I forgot to add that to not only should it save our settings, but have an 
option for it too start up in windows (and run by itself), and to also 
auto-minimize to the hidden icons.  This way the program runs by itself and we 
don't see it at all.

Thanks again.

Another request for "Save User settings" option. I prefer to test just once per 
minute, and with 2 connections, with "play sound on disconnect" and 
"Automatically save log" checked. I have to set this up each time the program 
is started.

Also I'm another user who would prefer an option to show only disconnections, 
with just one timestamp at the start & end of the log.
