Reply to How does one use Firefox? in Internet WinCustomize Forums

Kona ref: extensions. 1. Security wise - always ensure you are comfortable with the 'provider' of an extension before downloading. It is a potential weakness. You will see that the browser will not allow you to automatically download from a new source - you will have to give it permission. 2. I would take your time and install your extensions gradually. That way if one does cause a conflict it will be easier to identify.

Reply to DesktopX 3 is coming! in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

Hi Paxx Sure - that may be the case with many Gadgets - possibly even some programs will be produced as a premier Gadget and then a Lite version available as a widget. I'm sure there are many possibilities. As I say my point is not that I make a value judgement - my point is that there is no mileage in doing so until we actually see how these relationships

It seems like a wait and see thing to me. First of all I want to get my hands on DesktopX 3 and see what I can do with it for myself. Can I still make my own system and URL based widgets - that sort of thing. Secondly - and this will take a little longer. It may take a little time to see how the Gadget.com thing affects the range of new & interesting Widgets that would otherwise have become freely available to DesktopX owners. Will all the
