oh-kaaay, frequenz, listen very carefully, this is how to read it:
In the diagram you can see two representations of the guitar neck. One is the 12 fret view and the other is the 24 fret view.
The 12 fret view (top) has indicators below that show the fret numbers - III, V, VII, IX, XII (3, 5, 7, 9, 12).
ON each neck there are six parallel lines representing the strings. The topmost one (the one nearer the top of your screen) is the high (thin) E string. The bottommost one (the one nearer the bottom of your screen and your keyboard) is the low (fat) E String.
A red dot indicates a chord tone. For example, if you have the tick in the 'chord' checkbox and have C major selected, you'll see all the notes C, E and G lit up on the entire fretboard, showing all the possible combinations of those notes.
A black dot shows the scale tones, i.e. all the notes in the particular selected scale.
The tool is meant to help you learn all the positions of the notes in the scales and chords. You can turn on and off scales or chords when you want to concentrate on certain aspects, for example, if you are learning how to play over changes, you might want to turn on just chords, so you can learn to land on the correct notes of underlying chord in a progression.

frequenz - not sure what you mean by 'play with 2 parallel fret only'.
Basically the diagrams show all the notes of a particular scale or chord at the same time. How you play them (1 at a time, 2 at a time, 6 at a time) is up to you.
thor666 - sure - if you already know all scales and chords in all keys across the entire neck, or have no desire to know that, then the program isn't useful.

BloodSolo - yes - the size of the diagram is a common complaint. The reason it is this size is because I originally programmed this for a PocketPC device which has a small screen. I have 'making the diagram larger' on my to-do-list and will include it when it goes live on proper web hosting. In the meantime, if you use IE7, you can magnify by adjusting the zoom in the lower right corner.
