Also as a side note, the command line it claims to run isn't entirely 
correct, as it does not run any command line at all. It passes the 
arguments directly into the grabber application, bypassing any shell 
interpreter, as well as the need to escape or quote anything. 
Apostrophes, spaces, quotes, and any other special characters should all 
behave as expected.
