Thanks,

There used to be a NASA or astromony or Hubble site but I lost the URL. If I find this site I will post it. Every day they had a different outer space picture, which you could d/l the picture as you screen saver.

Thanks.

Check this link:

I don't know how you could use these as screen savers, but, as I said before, you can put any pictures you have on your computer into the Webshots screensaver/wallpaper program.

I went to the Nasa site and saved several pictures and will put them into the Webshots later. Also, as I said before, the Webshots web site has several collections, including a Space collection, which I have, and they are very nice.

In addition, you can search the Webshots website for NASA and Space pictures.

Looks to me like the Webshots software can fulfill your every dream in your above request.

I'm seeing this Webshots software on nearly every computer I see out in public.

Here's the Astronomy Picture Of The Day:

GREAT link, Gerdog. Thanks.

You guys are great!

Thanks,

Hey Enki Feedback time ,[WORKED GREAT], Thanks nice program :)

Great little reminder program set it and you wont forget it

Alarm Clock

Norton WinDoctor, which is a part of Norton SystemWorks. Awesome program. Anytime I install or un/reinstall software or make other major system changes, I run this program. You'd be surprised at the number of invalid shortcut, ActiveX errors, invalid file extension errors, etc. you will get on a fresh install of otherwise reliable software or even a fresh install of Windows. If you have this program, use it. It gets rid of all the little registry and file errors that freak Windows and apps out, causing system instability and crashes. Caveat Emptor. If you have an older version of Norton SW, as I do, you're probably better off choosing how to repair the error. WinDoctor usually chooses the correct option for the default suggested repair, but not always. You can undo repairs should something go askew if WinDoctor is correctly configured in options, but why tempt fate??

Here in one that is not mentioned , that is connection keeper (free) very good for those of you that use a dial up modem you'll find here: http://gammadyne.com/ it can be configured the way you like it you'll never get the boot from your ISP...

I must confess that I have not read all 20 pages of this thread, so if this has been mentioned already, I apologize.

The program is called IE New Window Maximizer and it can be gotten here. It is one of the most useful things I have come across.

A person would think that after all the versions of Windows that there have been, M$ would have been able to write an option to "open windows maximized" into their settings. :rolleyes:

The one program I absolutely, positively, cannot do without, the ONE program I demand to be present on any computer I use is the operating system.

Try as I can, I cannot be happy when it is not present.

Hi after doing some searching I found what I believe to be the best FREE desktop, sys tray icon ,weather program. BAR none =no spyware,or adds many many feature's included.
Give Weather Pulse a try and let me know what Ya think.

Weather Pulse

Free Sygate Personal firewall from Sygate Technologies so Click Here Requires you to be on-line during the Sygate install for registration and,

Free SAproxy from Deersoft so Click Here to combat Spam for most, but not all, pop3 email clients. Configuration instructions manual is within the installed application. Right-click the System Tray icon. To set a different 'hit' level you simple take the # sign out of the start of the Required Hits line under the Rules tab in Configuration and highlight the default level (5) and type a new number. Shut down then restart SAproxy for the 'hits' configuration changes to take effect. 1.7 works best for me. Best free Spam killer I've tried

Best little popup killer in town.

Smart Popup Killer from Firstnetsoft so Click Here

Just install it and go - for Internet Explorer.
