Reply to RightClick with WindowBlinds Skins Isn't Accurate in Object Desktop WinCustomize Forums

[quote]The last update caused the program to no longer import from any windowblind. Ive checked with several others and even in WB 6 RightClick no longer imports any wb skin. I assume all is working in Vista so thats why its been left this way.[/quote] Thanks for the info Fairy~. Exactly the same problem exists in Vista (64bit here). I always thought it was just me, and I actually had a go on it today. I uninstalled using the ODN-Zapper, rebooted, run a regis

[quote]The only program I use in your "Ultimate" is Right Click and I'm certainly not going to fork over an extra $20 for that alone. [/quote] Well, I sure would, as it is the most useful Stardock-Program for me. [quote]The renewal price of Object Desktop Ultimate hasn't been set but will probably be $39.95.[/quote] That's 5$ more for two new components. Not an unreasonable price increase. Especially not since OD has remained at the same price for ages (I believe this

Reply to Major Site problem Here in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

For me the forum-pages have been loading with the vicious velocity of the common garden slug. That is; I click on a thread to open, I go and get myself a coffee, I play with the cat, I ring my mom......... and after a while I may or may not be able to read the thread. I am writing this from within IE64bit, as I only got "connection reset"-errors in Firefox 2.0.0.11. This started about two days ago, with the "most recent"-forum page, showing only a partial- or even an

[quote]the most obvious solution is increase the ads for non-subscribers substantially. And those who don't want the ads and want the other services of WC and want to support the site directly can buy a subscription ($30 for the first year, $20 to renew). I can live with that. [/quote] So can I. I know that many might not agree, but I seriously wouldn't mind paying a bit more just to keep the site for subscribers ad-free. Having ads on a site (even static ones

Reply to Vista x64 - Uninstall not working in ObjectDock WinCustomize Forums

Uninstalling should have worked, unless something got borked during the install. Have you tried to install again (over the currently installed one) and then tried a uninstall? I know that sounds strange, but sometimes that actually works.

[quote]That being the case, why does Wincustomize have to be a money making division of Stardock? The old adage is true, in business you have to spend money to make money.[/quote] I thought this problem was solved with the Masters-suite program. Weren't we told that if the Masters-skins sell really well (which I think they did), they would generate good money to support WC? And wasn't that just a year ago? The same "incentives" about creating additional goodies for subscribers

I have to admit that this has me a bit worried, and I fear that we are going down a slippery slope. Having this site ad-free has always been an important factor for me, and as AlternateSetting has pointed out, having no ads for subscribers has always been a major perk. When ads were introduced after the launch of WC2005 we were promised that subscriber would not get any ads at all. Am I correct in assuming that the evergrowing traffic on WC is now mainly caused by (non-subscribing) peop

[quote]Oh, and did you see that Howard's butt-plug, Costello isn't contesting the leadership ... may even/will probably depart politics altogether???[/quote] Thats a bit odd, before I left Australia, I can distinctly remember that Howard said he would step back in favor of Costello after another year (I believe Costello was treasurer then). This obviously never happened?

Reply to A few free programs that are very helpful!! in Personal Computing WinCustomize Forums

I am currently using Kaspersky (KIS7), as it was one of the first Firewalls that worked reliably on Vista64bit. The main reason for me to get a software firewall additionally to the one in my router, was because I wanted easy control over which programs are allowed to access the Internet and which are not.
