| V1.1 is now available for download. Fixed the Year 2007 bug along with adding an extra post to the list. Plans for a v2.0 coming up soon which will have more features. 
Download Now! Install Directions: Once you have downloaded the .zip file: - Open the file
- Extract to the following directory: "C:\Program Files\Windows Sidebar\Gadgets" Replace "C" with whatever the drive letter is in which you installed Vista on.
- Once extracted if you navigate to that folder you will now see a folder named "VistaForumsV1.Gadget" along w/ the other .gadget folders.
- Your Done!
- Just go to your sidebar, right click > "Add Gadget". And scroll down until you see the Vista Forums gadget, right click and drag it over to the sidebar.
Enjoy.

| | Right Click, choose Exract All. You will need to rename the folder so that instead of VistaForumsV1.1Gadget it says VistaForumsV11.Gadget The only problem I have with it is that its wider than all other gadgets on the sidebar, making it look out of place and dare I say.. ugly. Hopefully Jason will reduce the width of it in v2.0.

| | I couldn't get it to extract no matter how many times I followed all directions on this page to the letter so I just gave up. |

| You must have a corrupt file or the program you use to unzip files has a fault, I just downloaded it and can extract the contents with Winzip, Winrar, 7z and Ace, what are you trying to decompress it with ?
