Scott's Gmail Alert is a notification program for Gmail, Google Apps, Google Calendar, and RSS feeds which quietly sits on your taskbar until it discovers new messages in up to five separate accounts. Send quick emails without logging in to Gmail directly, including replying to received messages and website email links. Set eye catching colors to alert messages to help differentiate important emails from others, using either the default or Windows Aero Glass theme.

    This version has many GREAT improvements, anyone looking for the VERY BEST GMail/Google Calendar notifier should be looking at this one, it would be 10 stars if that rating was available for me!!!!

    Reviewing 3.51 Beta (Oct 15, 2009)

    I have used V.3.51 & 3.60 and I have mixed emotions. As an application it does what it says. To some extend I have to say that I am very impressed.

    Unfortunately, when I install the app (Win XP SP3, ATI RAdeon 4850 with Catalyst 9.9) full screen overlay mixer video rendering does not work (please reboot the computer to check it). DirectDraw works, similar to Haali, etc. Tested with the KMPlayer, AverTV DVB-T software, etc.
