Ok I corrected some code and it now runs on my machine as well.

1> Drawing issues have been resolved
2> Destroy menu error has a work around in place

I dont know why (ATM), but placing hooks into a Menu is creating the error
on exit.  The work around (for now) is not hooking Menus.  The library still
works for MenuItems.

I dont think this will effect anyone as it has not been drawing correctly
for awile now so obviously no one was using it else I would have heard
complaints about it =)

If anyone knows why hooking a Menu would cause a problem let me know and I
will see if I can correct my code to work with them also.  It should post
for download sometime this morning...
