Can you please explain a little bit better on what these "rotating icons" are? Maybe a picture? What version of WATCHOUT do you use?
The only "rorating icon" I can remember is the Windows one, usually an idication of something loading, or that it's trying to restore a program that's in a crashing state.
If this is the case, then you should probably try to uninstall the current version and install a new one, http://www.dataton.com/downloads
We don't have any rotating icons on either the production or the display softwares. We use progress-bars if media has to be downloaded.
