This is a brand auto referesher for Warcraft 3. It's licensed under the GNU GPL and comes with source code.

- More stable and uses less resources!
Note: You will need to have .Net 1.1 or Mono installed to use this.

Instructions
Using the Autorefresher is simple:
- Run the program.
- Start Warcraft III.
- Host your map.
- You'll notice "Autorefresh has joined the game." and "Autorefresh has left the game." messages if it's working properly.
- As soon as your game is full, tab out and kill the Autorefresher program and then start the game.
Pro Tip: If you close a few slots (so approximately two or three are open at a time), you'll drastically cut down on the spam when Autorefresh joins and leaves.
Note: If you start Autorefresher after you start your game, you may have to manually refresh each slot before it kicks in.
