Ok. But if I click agree in the installation file I got, doesn't that bind me to the license agreement in the setup file? I'm a bit wary about agreeing to any sort of agreements, hence all these questions.

Frogboy: Actually, in the license agreement in DX3Pro it says it is limited to only five applications and for 100 000 customer/users. I didn't see that on the purchase page of DX3Pro and therefor desided not to install it until I had gotten some reply from [email protected]. Is it the license agreement in the installer that is out of date?

Ok, thanks for clearing that up. You may NOT create desktop themes for resale with DesktopX Professional. It was this line that made me unsure, because it said resale and not distribution . Just wanted to know how to interpret it.

It's very tricky to get third party applications to work with MSN because they disabled API access to it some versions ago. However, I have seen programs around that can do that. SmartbarXP and DesktopSidebar. You might want to try to contact them and see if you have any luck.

I sent an email to [email protected] about more of the same question, but I'll ask it here as well since it's on the same topic. What defines a desktop? Does it means replacing taskbar, systray and icons? What about a sidebar gadget, is that a "desktop"? Can we make freeware desktops with Pro?

I shouldn't have jinxed it in that last post... Ok, it wasn't related to DX crashing, but I still managed to loose script and object I was working on. I accedential double clicked on a dxpack and DX loaded it. However it cleared all the objects I allready was working on. I thought I completely lost about 3 days work there. But it turned out I had exportet it be

The two last Update Notifications I've gotten from WC has refered to draginol.wincustomize.com instead of www.wincustomize.com. Not sure if this is something that is affected by all the notifications because both of them where about the same thread. The link I got was http://draginol.wincustomize.com/articles.aspx?AID=67659 when it should have been https://www.wincustomize.com/articles.aspx?AID=67659 . Arrrh... why does it

Anyways, what I'm curious about is where is the windows API access thay they talked about before it release? Or did I misinterpret this? That's still being hold off. We are still evaluating usability in VBScript and security concerns. There are still lots of features to come for the 3.x line.

The thing is that Longhorn is going to be shipped with new computers after it's released. These computer will have no problem running it. Most people get a new coputer system after a few years anyways. But in any case, you don't need to run Longhorn with everything on. You disable features as it suits you. But Avalon is not what will demand the most of your graphical hardware. Avalon is a presentation system that let you write applications in

I know it's not easy to make the programs, but I've seen some that are 25kbs, and they want $50 for it. Are you saying the price for the program should be in propotion to the file size? That doesn't make any sence. I'd rather pay for a very tiny program that does it job, than for a large one that can't.

I've had DX since version 1 as well. However, the stuff I wanted to create for/with it had allways turned a bit akward and more-difficult-than-nessesary. (I didn't want to make another clock or weather thingy. I was going a bit further than that. You'll see later...) How, however, I've only had DX3 for about a week (beta) but I've picked up my old ideas and projects and I feel comfident that this time it'll be a breeze. Anyways, what I'm curio

Ok, you don't feel the need for WinFS. That's fair enought. But why don't you install SP2 which caps a high number of security holes? Why would you wan't your computer more exposed than it has to?
