Still doesn't work for me behind proxy server at work. I haven't had a chance to try it at home without proxy server.

Yuri - great job on the WM add-on. Great little tool. My only request: I run my resoution at 1600x1200 on a 21-inch monitor. In any skin choice, I have a hard time reading the numbers. I would find it helpful to add an option for the plugin to run in the same "double-wide" style as the "Full" skin, but with only the temp in a large font next to sun symbol. (Among other possible configurations.)

Thanks again for a great tool!

Sorry. With proxy (especially if proxy need authentication) there some problems Sad You need to wait the next version of plugin ???

OK, I'll make LARGE skin. What config do you use, Icon size, Show Text...?

Guest Wrote:The weather plug-in does, and doesn't work for me. Here's the situation:

I've got a cable connection to the net. I am running ZoneAlarm Pro. While ZA is running, the weather plug-in does NOT work - ZA is blocking some port (??) or program that the plug-in is trying to use to get its information. If I shut ZA down, the plug-in works great.

Does anyone know how I need to configure ZA to allow the plug-in to access the net?
-- UPDATE --

I've traced the ZoneAlarm problem down to two things: if either "Ad Blocking" or "Cookie Control" are enabled, the plug-in doesn't work. It doesn't matter which one of the two are enabled, but if either are even set to the lowest setting, the plug-in doesn't work.

But if both Ad Blocking and Cookie Control are disabled, the plug-in works great.

Any ideas??

I use small icons (16x16) - though the size that WeatherMon is running at now (48x22) is fine. I do not use "Show Text".

Thanks!

Version 1.1 works GREAT Yuri! I've set the connection to "Direct to net" and turned on both Ad Blocking and Cookie Control in ZA. Good job!!

Thanks!
