I’m just trying this program, and it’s not showing up in the tray. Actually it shows the icon of the guy with the lightening bolt until I move my mouse over it, at which time it disappears. Weather Watcher is still running in the task manager. I set the zip code, for the program to load with windows and to start minimized. It’s probably something I did, but so far I can’t figure it out.
I am having the same problem. Im running w2k fully patched, zone alarm, avg.
Normally I dont use IE for anything except windowsupdate
I muddled with my IE settings to get the cities to load, and got that to work, but now it shows the little thor/lightning god, and when I mouse-over it vanishes.
Having the EXACT same problem. Went to update from 5.4a (or b, not sure) and now it won’t show up in system tray. When I clicked on it, it said 5.4c, now I notice the web page says 5.5. Is it possible to go get 5.4c still? Maybe a downgrade will help…
Just as an FYI, I grabbed 5.4c off a mirror site, reinstalled, and now it’s working fine. This is on Windows 98, by the way. The 5.5 upgrade seemed to go fine on the XP machine. Mike - if you’re watching, I think there’s a bug…
Oh and by the way - thanks for such a great program!
One last note…I compared the original 5.5 setup I downloaded (earlier today) to the one I just downloaded again and found that they were not the same file. So, on a whim, I uninstalled and reinstalled the “new” 5.5 and voila! It’s working again! Maybe there was a corrupted version posted or something, but chris000001 and bludstone, try downloading it again and reinstalling.
It’s not a bug… you were missing needed Window system files. This usually happens when installing an update, instead of the full version. The update does not include the needed Windows system files.
