As I mentioned a few weeks ago, I removed Weather Bug, since it appeared to be malware, and replaced it with Weather Pulse. What was really neat about WP was that it allowed me to select the weather map of my choice and save it as a desktop background. I selected the Pueblo Doppler Radar picture and it would be updated during the day so I could see the storms moving through the area.

Unfortunately, I started some PC frezing symptoms that I associated with Weather Pulse. The problem seemed to start when it notified me at boot-up that an upgrade was available and I asked it to upgrade the app. then the PC would freeze up and I would be forced to power off the PC to proceed. Not Helpful. So, I reluctantly went to Uninstall WP and it announced a successful uninstall. But it still tried to start up, various errors messages shoed up saying modules weren’t available and the weather map stayed in the background. But no temperatures would show up in the tool bar, just n/a. Turns out the the directory was still in Program files with the .exe file. So I deleted the directory and will see what happens now.

While browsing the program files, I noticed that the Yahoo Messenger and AOL onDesktop directories were still there. I had deleted the software a month or two ago. So I deleted those directories, too. amazing how much the uninstall process doesn’t uninstall.

But my current Weather tracking tool is a Firefox extension – Forecastfox. I have it set to report on the Monument weather from weather station USCO0276. It appears at the bottom of my Firefox screen, it’s sunny and 27 degrees (F) at the moment.
