Broadband Firefox users should try ForecastFox 0.5.8. It will put the Weather Channel forecast of your choice in the taskbar. Completely customizeable (I selected the three-day, day-and-night forecast for my ZIP) and totally cool.

The only thing it doesn't do is improve the weather. ;O)

Thanks for the tip- I just installed it, and it is a cool little extention!


Everyone else? If you can't abide the idea of using Firefox- for whatever reason- get something else to use in lieu of Internet Explorer.

Even the old copies of Netscape you probably have on all those free discs you got in the mail are better than IE.

We started using FF on the home PC's after a nasty hijacker in June, and we only use IE on the few sites that will not accept alternatives.
