Also at me it hangs up.
-Also by sending the first message

If I go over the the Messenger and the Chat windows, my mouse disappears and there is an error message in the gadget at the sidebar (the small one - for the favorites)

Hm, is it video drivers, the app itself, a bug in .net 3.0....

It seems to work fine for me. Maybe I'm just lucky.

Here are my picks for top gadgets for Vista Sidebar:

CPU Multi-Meter shows individual cores and memory, because you have to know what's up. [there is also a quad version]

Multi Meter (Dual Core) v1.25a

Volume Gadget, because clicking on Volume icon and adjusting at high resolutions is too much work.

Traffic by Live Search Maps

Built-in Weather Gadget. I have 3 of them tracking cities/zipcodes where I live, work, go to school. [long story] helps to know where it's raining.

Well, here is my favorite screenshot of the Vista gadget...the weather in Ohio is seriously wack...

Ok I feel pretty dumb, I can't get any fancy thumbnail to show up here, with [IMG] things or HTML. I give up...

You should read the whole thread before you reply... it's working on Trix end and we don't know why it is not working at your and my pc... strange. You could also write the devs about the issue... perhaps they know about it.
