[Tilesathome] Windows issues

Hey all,

    Been testing the client on some windows boxes today and ran into some issues.  After the client does either 2 or 3 jobs it fails with an error.  Here's the output with debug turned on:

    0 zip files left to upload
    Searching for tiles in c:\temp\
    done
    done
    0 zip files to upload
    Searching for tiles in c:\temp\
    done
    done
    0 zip files to upload
    Searching for tiles in c:\temp\
    done
    done
    0 zip files to upload
    [#0   0% ] Error reading request from server. Idle for 0:30 (0% idle) ...

    Not sure why it checks three times for files to upload, but it always does that right before it dies.  It'll check every minute and give the same error until I shut it down.  This always happens after the 2nd or 3rd job when running in loop mode.  I'm wondering if this has something to do with the fact that it doesn't seem to be deleting the PID-named subfolders in the temp directory???  They're still filled with PNGs even after the tileset has been uploaded.

    One smaller issue is that I think the 7-zip command line in compress.pl on line 248 should be "$Dir/*.PNG"); instead of "$Dir/*");.  This should keep it from zipping the Thumbs.db file that windows creates and inflating the zip filesize.

    These issues aside, the windows install is fairly painless now.  The scripts (almost) work right out of the box.  Thank you to whoever has been working on that aspect of the client.
