Why Your Windows Desktop Gadgets No Longer Update

Gadgets have been discontinued

 

Gadgets are no longer available on our website because the Windows Sidebar platform in Windows 7 and Windows Vista has serious vulnerabilities. Microsoft has retired the feature in newer releases of Windows. Gadgets could be exploited to harm your computer, access your computer's files, show you objectionable content, or change their behavior at any time. An attacker could even use a gadget to take complete control of your PC. If you're concerned about the safety of gadgets you've downloaded, find out more about gadgets and steps you can take to protect your PC.

 

Yet another Microsoft "technology" meets the dustbin of history.  They sold you it but they won't fix it!
