Love this widget, but my computer does not. I have noticed my CPU cycles spiking constantly. I weeded out all my widgets to find that tremor skimmer is the culprit. I turned off animations and scrolling and it brought the cpu load down considerably.

Preferences have an option for "audio" alert but for some reason I am not getting any audio alert even when magnatude threshold exceeded. I also don't get alarm with some alarm clocks but do get alarm or audio alerts with some other widgets. XP sp1 used. Am I missing maybe the sound file that is being used? Otherwise seems to work ok and great widget. Oh, I do have to turn if off when using google earth as it bleeds thru when set to normal window but not a big problem for me.

Would be nice if the events were selectable and the crosshairs moved to the locale of that event.

Doesn't work on Windows 2000. I have the same problem as others below. CPU goes to 100% at the disclaimer which I can't click as the cursor becomes an hourglass. Have to kill Konfabulator to regain control of the PC. Screenshots look nice though. Wish I could try it.

Great Widget! Love it. It works perfectly at home on Windows XP but hangs at work at the disclaimer on Windows 2000. Any fixes?
