Firewall block
RelayYes! Find "curl.exe" in your blocked list & "allow" it to run. Your images should load. Thank you Indianatone.

Great Widget
sI really like and use this. But it won't work correctly if you move your temp folders to another drive like D:\Temp
Ken if you read this can you please look into this and fix it please? Thx
It's best for me not to keep my temp on my system drive. Because I am now using a solid state hard drive. And the less writes the better.

Useful but can be trick with your firewall
IndianatoneThis is a great widget but can sometime be a little tricky to get to work. If you get the dreaded no images screen check your firewall settings for a program called "Curl.exe". This must be allowed to access the internet for this and similar widgets to work. It took me a while to find this out after a fresh install of XP pro.
I have used this widget for several years and it is great.
