    It worked for a few days, but no it only says, "You're Stealing". How can I be stealing freeware? I like the program concept, but it falls short(way short) in practice. I hope they get the bugs out soon.

    Would be nice... if it worked! Yahoo weather must have updated or something- even the default locations only came up with page errors. Beware XP users: my XP latched onto a *.ttf file it came with, making it impossible to delete (no uninstall included). Great idea, nice features... if it worked.
