I'm actually writing this using the Safari clone, and I swear, it loads pages faster than explorer..... I'm in heaven!! they have the control panel, adress book, font book, Exposé, alot of stuff. my comp is feeling alot closer to OS X now that I found that web page.

so guys, check it out, its crazeeeee

Sound like buying a Ford instead of a Lincoln and putting the Lincoln emblem on it.

Other than browsers that use the IE engine, can you name a browser that doesn't load faster than IE?

Looks like another rip site to me. They have lots of Mac Windowblinds...the author is "Admin", not the real authors...but I'm not 100% sure how they got there.

AquaControls are not supposed to be distributed. all programs reliant on them should also not be in distrobution I beleive.

why?? lol I dont even know exactly what it is. I was talkin with this guy on Yahoo, about how I wanted to make a replica of Force Quit, and he said, "here, take this instead" and it was force quit, but it wont work because I dont have the OCX... so could someone explain to me what the deal is with this?

Site is okay, but they have some illegit(sp) links to stardock products on the site..

example.. http://www.osx-e.com/index.php?option=com_remository&Itemid=27&func=download&filecatid=129

I don't find anything really wrong with the site (besides what phoon mentioned), but you will not get the aquacontrols unless you find a friend that has them and is willing to send them to you. I am pretty sure that there are almost no sites on the net with them on them anymore. There still might be, but they are not supposed to have them I think.

I wouldn't worry about programs that need the aquacontrols because those programs are not being updated and you can't get support for them. However there are many programs that you can get that do appoxiamately the same thing

I dont need support for programs... lol I am my own support. but I do need AquaControls, because I really REALLY wanna run the Force Quit on my computer instead of task manager. so if any.... oh god, bleeding again.... stupid teeth!!! just got 2 yanked out.... if anyone has them, please PM me! thanks

If Force Quit is what I think it is, On the PC it's called the ON/OFF switch

you are not supposed to have the aquacontrols.
here is the original home of them. you can probably find a replacement for what you want here: http://www.aqua-soft.org/

I understand the concept of the site, but wonder if the admins there got permission from the authors to host their skins there Does anyone know?

I am positive they did. (at least 98%)

I'm sceptical of that myself. Considering the fact that they did not get Stardock's permission to let Logon Studio be downloaded from the site. ( At least, I don't THINK they got permission)

aqua-soft is well known. I doubt they have rips and other various nefarious things there.

I'm not looking for WindowBlinds skins or anything, I already have the one I want. Its simply for two or three apps that I have that need it to have the Aqua look. And.... why is it not distributed anymore??
Reply #24 Top
people... please. I realy want Force Quit. I wont give out AquaControls or anything that needs it. In fact, I dont give anything out. I tell people to download it, and I give them a LEGAL link. so please, this one time... I need AquaControls!!!
