I
am a fan of Windows 7 gadgets. Had them on my desktop to give me the
weather in five different cities to see how the family is doing, had one
to give me a slide show of some of my favorite pictures, another to
give me stock updates on my favorites, another was a process monitor to
tell me when my computer was getting slow, dual clocks to tell me what
time it is in Beijing, and a currency converter for my traveling
overseas. There are thousands of them out there.
Unfortunately, I had
to get rid of them all. First of all, it seems that Microsoft has done
away with the gadgets in Windows 8 coming out soon and to make things
even worse, there is a serious bug in the software that propels those
gadgets to allow your system to get corrupted by some of the above junk
ware. So go to the Microsoft support page and they will tell you how to
remove them from the system and if they ever get it sorted out, they
also have the Microsoft Fix It to re-enable them. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2719662
