Weather docklet

from WinCustomize Forums
Never could get the weather docklet to work properly. I'll click it to enter my zip code, then it takes about 5 minutes before it says Weather Information Unavailable. Ive tried zip and code.

Also, I just downloaded OD last week to try it out. (I have SysStats 2.5 installed in AveDesk folder, too)

What am I missing?

For weather information, the best thing I've seen is the ForecastFox 0.7.1 Extension available in Mozilla FireFox. It works from behind corporate firewalls and proxies and allows a bunch of customization to show multiple profiles (different zipcodes), days, temps, forecasts, etc. in the status bar at the bottom of the Firefox window.

A great app...

The only way I ever got the default weather docklet to work was to remove and put it back. I still haven't got sysstats to work 100% on my computer, so I am not going to try their weather docklet.

Does anybody know how I find the country code for my country. I live in copenhagen, Denmark and I have no troubles finding the forecast at weather.com. But how to put it into the settings of the weather docklet?

Can anybody help me?

Look at the URL when you're at the weather.com site and lookingat your town. It contains a code which in the case of Copenhagen is DAXX0009. The widget should work when you enter this code.
