I've got a problem. Sidebar.exe seems to hog a lot of memory (like 150k). Is there a way to fix this? Thanks!

I figured out that some gadgets just don't work, which is odd. Okay, I downloaded Alky for Applications, but it was not from Alky's website (could that be it?). I rebooted then after that I installed KB940541 (this was from another site too, not here). Lastly, I downloaded Windows Sidebar v6.0.6000.16386 Windows XP SP2 version, from this thread. When it downloaded, I right clicked on sidebar.ini and selected install. Then it installed. I also restarted the computer just to be safe again. Now I've uninstalled and reinstalled everything about three times now, but it still gives me trouble. I am using XP Home 2002 SP2. Thank you for helping me too. oh, and the addons that are giving me trouble are different each time. Sometimes it would be App Laucnher v3, other times it would be Weather or Drive Info. It changes everytime.

Thanks, but my gadgets still freeze when I drag them to the desktop or the sidebar. Did I do something wrong. I've read and followed the directions multiple times. I get this messege: and then I get this messege: And then I have to kill sidebar.exe and restart it. BTW, hear that this sidebar is the best! Good work & good luck with the future!

This looks like a great program, but I'm running into problems. Sidebar seems to freeze-up and not work at all. I have to go into Task Manager and kill the sidebar.exe process. Is there a guide or any instructions on how to install or run sidebar? Thanks!
