What version, free or plus?

What OS?

I have plus on Vista Home Premium 64 bit and it is working okay on the XP Home 32 bit system it is not working okay.

I did the same thing, looks like the docklet is broke in XP, workin okay in Vista, no idea about Win 7.

Hmmm, this does seem like a recurring problem with Object Dock.

Works fine for me in Windows 7 Pro 32-bit, but the weather docklet is not without bugs, that's for sure.

Replace the weather ocx again and it works fine. I just tried it as mine was stuck also. Just follow the instructions in THIS thread.

For those who did it before here you go.:

to download the ocx file,then put it into C:\Program Files\Stardock\ObjectDock 

Don't forget to restart OD.

just a silly question here, but why can't this get a permanent fix? 

Having to do this every several months is very annoying

For me I wont consider paying for object dock at all  till I see the stuff working and that includes whatever I use for weather.

 

So far, the free version is cool but some elements are not quite there.. and until they do it right my boss's company wont bother getting them to do a 'dell dock' like corporate version for them.... like stardock did for DELL.

 

 

 

Shame, seems Stardock isnt wanting additional income.

Maybe they should hire me.. as I am  playing around with a stardock alternative myself from a not so great alternative to stardock trying to improve it.. But unlike stardock I wont put the product out till its working.
