tried to install in 32bit Win7 beta7000, one with nvidia, one with ati video card... both failed... white rectangle with 4 blue tabs is all I can see... is there a fix... love the monitor on my vista box...

McP, there was a programming error while trying to retrieve stock quote 'ETFC.' We have fixed this error, so you will now be able to view 'ETFC' in the gadget.

This comment isn't about the MM sidebar gadget but I am looking for a really good Twitter sidebar gadget for Vista. The ones currently available are not very good, they dont seem to update correctly.
I want it so I get a tweet about when a live meeting is about to take place but the current gadgets are too slow for it and end up late.

I can't figure out where to log a support request so I'm trying this. If I add ETFC - E*Trade stock to the market monitor it doesn't show up. It appears in the data file as US:ETFC along with other stocks I've added, but ETFC doesn't work.

Help!

Does it support other countries stock markets? Any way to add them? Thanks

edit: found it, search indices for FTSE and it comes up :) Now what about an exchange rate app :D

I cant find the FTSE 100 on v1.0 of your stocks gadget, searching both UK and US for UKX or FTSE. Also exchange rate inclusion would be VERY useful! Unless u plan on making a dedicated app for that! :) Nice work!
