Weather Docklet

I know that there's new versions of the weather docklet out there that allow for international weather... But I'm assuming that they're based on the source code for the original docklet. I don't know how everyone else's experiences have been with it, but for me, the weather docklet stops updating itself after a day or so, and right clicking on the icon does nothing (so I cannot update manually). So is a chance that anyone else could write an improved weather docklet?

I get that problem when I play a full screen game like battlefield1942, all you do is quit the dock and open it again. ONly way i've found around it

i started up today, and the weather docklet isn't showing anything other than my city name now.. shows N/A and a big question mark.. don't know why :-/ can't seem to fix it, and the site isn't having problems that i can see...

Look around all the other dock forums and the Samurize forum...weather.com changed the way they're returning results and it broke the docklets for ALL the docks - there's a workaround for Yz dock by pointing the docklet to beta.weather.com, Moby has a fix for his new version (whenever it gets released), and I think a fixed OD docklet was posted on usenet...I don't use OD, so I haven't tried it.

when the weather and cpu usage docklets stop working after switching users etc, i just reload the dock theme. faster than exiting the dock and then restarting it.

Thank you Judge...

that was very helpful.....

If I my ask...

how did you edit the dll file?

I can't figure it out in VB6..

But I'm also not very good at programming too...

Thought it would be simple...

What program did you use?

I'm a Green ****ie at this...

so please be kind.
