I have rewritten some of this gadgets code. It should resolve any issues for anyone who couldn't get it to sign in  :xx

All installation issues should be resolved now. Some systems were requiring a manual install of the gadget. It now installs normally.

Installs OK, but doesn't recognise my user name or password.
It also doesn't show the password input box unless you "Tab" after inputting user-name. I think that will confuse quite a few members.

You must have a low screen resolution set so it doesn't display properly. Would you mind sending me your password via PM so I can check for the problem? (No worries about your account as I can access it all anyway I just want to check the way the password is encoded by the gadget)

Is that with the previous version or the new one from this morning? The installation package is strictly to microsofts spec now.

I re-downloaded it from the OP.
I am assuming that the link is still valid for the updated version. $%&

Yes it is, I just replaced the file. I presume you uninstalled the original one first?
Just to check if you don't mind. Rename the rcmf.gadget file you downloaded to rcmf.zip then open it. You should see the files in the zip not a folder.

The same as my monitors, it should display perfectly as it's a standard size.

I'd had to do a fresh win7 install so wasn't installed.
Clicked on link and downloaded but it was already in zip format.
Had to unzip and save to a location.
Unzipped folder is just called rcmf.
Had to rename to rcmf.gadget and then copied and pasted into gadgets folder.

C:\Program Files\Windows Sidebar\Gadgets

I think I know what may be causing the problem. I have my text set at 125%

It should be a gadget file which if you select open rather than save will install automatically. I have checked the link and it's right so I would suggest trying again.

Right, I've right clicked and clicked on open.

It is saying that the file is named rcmf.zip

So whatever i try it opens with winrar.
