The original version of SIREN.ACC had several problems. It ran only in high resolution, would not register itself in the GEM drop-down menu, and activated itself so frequently that its only use could be to install it, watch it a little while, say "wow", and then remove it.
I decided to take this accessory under my wing and make it behave. It now registers itself in the menu like a normal accessory. This allows you to click on it to manually summon the fuzz. The automatic patrolling of your screen has been set to once an hour, but I've provided a separate program called SETSIREN.PRG which allows you to set this time to any number of minutes and seconds. This is especially useful in high-crime areas where more police protection is desired.
