Rainmeter is a desktop customization platform. Through Rainmeter, you can enhance your Windows computer at home or work with skins: handy, compact applets which float freely on your desktop, much like Windows Sidebar gadgets, or dashboard widgets for the Mac.

Rainmeter skins provide you with useful information at a glance. It's easy to keep an eye on your system resources, like memory and battery power, or your online data streams, including email, RSS feeds, and weather forecasts. Many skins are even functional: they can record your notes and to-do lists, launch your favorite applications, and send your tweets to Twitter - all in a clean, unobtrusive interface that you can rearrange and customize to your liking.

    Been using this for awhile with no problems until now. The icons in the theme I'm using have become jagged. Reverted back and they look normal again

    @HeilNizar:
    Rainmeter is open source. Try the following build which doesn't need any MSVC runtime installed: http://www.multiupload.com/RL165OUYWF

    virustotal doesn't load for me so feel free to scan the file yourself, but it's a vanilla build from the svn trunk (with some project file related changes which shouldn't have any effect)

    Very nice and FREE, I wished it was completely portable without depending on c++ redistributable package.

    I have no respect for any program that immediately starts downloading dependencies without bothering to first check if their present. Who DOESN'T have the VC++ runtime on their system at this point?? At least least ASK me if you can't be bothered to write the five lines of code!

    Time for discussion.
    What is there that you believe that Rainmeter can not do?
