I have never really followed the Olympics.  I'm not a big sports person in general, so I guess maybe that's the base of it, but I really have no desire to watch or follow anything going on with the Olympics.

Does anyone here watch the Olympics?

From the start this project seemed doomed!

Animosity, arguments, hurt feelings, every direction that it went seemed blocked, then:

 

Sydneysiders came to the rescue with a new idea! A new, but somewhat slow getting a foothold idea, Feature a new skinners work with this project.

You saved this project, keeping positive and offering so much of your time for the project.

Avira has added two good features to its free edition security software: Cloud protection and browser safety. The former was a premium edition only feature. This should happen per gHacks within the next three months. This works by virtually fingerprinting the files to be uploaded and they are inspected for safety for other Avira users. “Browser Safety” is included when you install Avira Antivirus.

Avira browser safety has been around as a beta for some time as a Firefox and Chro...

DeskScapes is a very popular gallery here on WinCustomize, and it gets lots of downloads from users coming to the site.  Animated wallpapers are sometimes overlooked when getting a desktop setup configured, but there’s such a variety of choices  that it shouldn’t be ignored.  Landscapes are always a popular choice as they offer a subtle animated experience with a beautiful scene that gives a nice relaxing feel to your desktop.  Of course if you like something a bit more wild,...

Of course, at this point you’ll need an iPhone to hook it up to, and it’ll need refilling, but the new alarm clock will wake you up with the sound of sizziling bacon and more importantly, its SMELL!

The small device is simply plugged into the headphone jack.

While the app and sizzling sound are free on the website, the device will only go to those who fill out a request and are chosen in a lottery.

This makes the price of an iPhone worth it!

Good luck!

I placed my order for Object Desktop, Tweak 7 and Objectdock Plus v2 last Saturday. I was advised that it would take up to 2 working days to process the order. Well it's now another weekend and still when I log on it says I have no orders and strangely the shopping cart still says I have 3 items in it despite receiving an order confirming the order and giving me an order number 2171806.

Can someone from Stardock please look into this as I am getting concerned.

Many thanks.

I've read articles listing changes to the OS included in the next major update to Windows 8 and it seems at least one change mimics a feature of ModernMix, namely pinning Modern (Metro) apps on the desktop taskbar. Once this major update is released next month, will ModernMix and the update work together nicely or will ModernMix need to be uninstalled?

This little gem is just what the Doctor ordered for those who repair family PCs/laptops as well as being a great portable tool on a stick if you’re traveling.

First of all, it’s free, it launches from the systray, and gives you organized access to everything organized on the USB device and the computer. Further, you can add items to the menu easily.

Here’s what it looks like:

Take VirtualBox and install Windows 8.1.  Everything seems fine, works fine, but the desktop user interface is hideous.  It looks like something that crawled out of the ass end of 1995.

OK, so I installed WindowBlinds like I've used on Windows 7 for a long time.  I installed the trial version of it so to see if things will work right.  So I installed it and applied a theme.  I then went to go launch Google Chrome.  I click the icon and I wait, wait, wait, and...

I have a question with regards to deskscapes starting automatically when windows loads.  Most of the time it doesn't start, so I have to go to Configure Deskscapes > choose my dream > Apply to Desktop.

 

Under Services.msc, the startup type for "Stardock Deskscapes 8" is set to automatic.

I have the following installed:

Deskscapes 8 ver. 8.10

Fences 2 ver. 2.12

ModernMix ver. 1.12

Start8 ver. 1.31

Windowblinds 8 ver 8.03

 

Thanks.
