Using it by myself. Avira told me its a virus. Its not.

Q1: Antivirus ate installer and it wont work.
A1: Unpack installer and install it again. Helped for me.

Q2: How to remove black gradient line? (XP sidebar)
A2: At first de-attach gadget from sidebar, and then right click it, and choose close side bar. If you want to pop it up again, right click in tray and click open.

Q3: How to install it?
A3: Extract the zip file to C:\Program Files\Windows Sidebar\Gadgets
Disk letter might differs.
Afterwards you should be able to select the gadget.
The server count is refreshed every 30 seconds. The gadget will become green if there is at least 1 server online.

lol... Windows XP and older Windows versions don't have gadgets as far as I know. Why are you asking for a gadget (and show a gadget which is for 7/vista) if you don't even have Win 7 or Vista?! Makes no sense

I see, I'm on UNIX, so that has no use for me. However, who wrote that? user DC or you? I don't really understand.

Just read the thread
i also kept original first post to show how thats started. DC made it, i wrote about it in the end of my post.

So he wrote the gadget but did not tell anyone? Damn, I don't understand! Anyway, this gadget must be really handy.

He made it just today, some hours ago i believe. And maybe he didnt realized how nice that might be, so not posted it into the news section.

Also, now i dont know, like with XP, but is there a way to use in under a unix system, like ubuntu? lol
