The prog is a great release but i have a few questions...

1. When re-opening a minimised program from the taskbar, it doesnt re-appear, but comes up as a black task in objectbar.

2. Is there any way to stop me having to tell the comp who i am each time i turn on the PC? (log-on screen)

3. I cant find any way to resize the desktop icons - it was easy enough to do with v2, but i cant find any way (im probably being stupid)

Im sure there are simple ways to change these but i thought id ask.

Regardless of these

[center=]GET FLYAKITE V3 - IT RULES :cool:

Well i've been using Flykite since version 1 but this installation screwed my Windows boot :( I had to use the BATCH Restore from the XP console :(. I hesitate to do it again now.

I restarted my comp after the installation, but when the boot screen appeared (gray back and the apple) juste after 1 sec it stays gray, but there's an error message that i can't read. Well, strange to explain but the font is totally screwed so i can't even read what's the message.

Any reason? I didn't install Flyakite v 2 before as i didn't for 1 -> 2 and on the aqua forums flyakite says it useless...

just for those curious.. my deNuoNet mirror is down for the next 19 hours because it generated over 20gb of bandwidth in the past 24hours, so during that time i will be working on a bandwidth limiting mechanism so the site doesn't get bogged down like it has been.

and for the other curious... i fixed my disgruntled-dutch mirror. The box is able to handle the connections fine but it was still running a default secured config of apache2 causing only 150 simultanous connections to be allowed. I have removed that limit and it seems the problem is resolved. (what was happening is people attempting to download / access the site were getting a "waiting for a response" reply because apache was being a price.

I can't believe I have pushed out 300gb worth of Flyakite.

Here is a graph...

(In means out as it means In from the PC to Switch), its a tad bit reversed then what you might be accustomed to.

http://joost.endoria.net/icontweaker/home/ <-- Is a good program to tweak icons... coming to the thunderbird icon problem... two possibilities.. 1) Your maginification is too high... 2) Thunderbird icon isn't a good quality one... Chris is not responsible for either btw...

Thx for the link Ark...I'll check it out!

Is it worth installing this? I downloaded this and put it on a CD, so whenever I want to install it I will, so I am wondering if it's worth it and does it mess with any of your files? Will it change any files or anything? Will I have to re-format if I want to uninstall?

i think to use the searchspy you have to have google desktop installed. my installation went well except for rk launcher which said about item something missing. another thing is i tried do the regedit to make the button text readable but stilll have them, arghh don't know what the problem is. oh btw how come the shutdown buttons and logoff buttons has a weird looking crooked image? just asking.

This is completely worth it. The very helpful thing about shell packs or bricopacks are that they are like regular programs. You install it with the .exe, you choose what to install/not install, and then it goes through the process to replace your icons/programs/animations/everything. Then, when you are fed up with it, you just press start, and then all programs, then go to the start menu folder, then click on un-install. Easy as that.

Is it normal that the buttons in the red box didn't change?

There are 5 files that won't change at all, maybe this is on of these. When i run the updater, they change, then immediately Windows Update tells me there's an update available for Internet Explorer. Always the same number of update: KBxxxxxx. If i let the Windows files, no problem, if i run Flyakite updater again, WU pops up again and again :pinch:

Stay connected affordably in 120+ countries/regions with your own lifetime eSIM! An eSIM is a digital SIM card. It's basically just mobile data. Once it's activated on your device, it can connect you to data networks in other countries – giving you an internet connection with NO roaming charges. With aloSIM, you can load prepaid eSIM data packages onto your phone, tablet, or computer. Your lifetime eSIM never expires, so it's yours forever and there are never any monthly charges. You'll get $50 in eSIM data credit, which is almost always enough to cover all your data roaming needs for a full year. But if you run out of data, you can always top up your lifetime eSIM and stay connected internationally. Pay $24.97 for a lifetime eSIM with $50 in travel data credit Use your eSIM to join data networks in 120+ countries Install your lifetime eSIM on a compatible device to roam on local data networks Your lifetime eSIM never expires, and can be topped up with more data anytime Many data packages cost as little as $4.50 and last 7 days. Depending on the package you choose, the length of time varies. Good to know Length of access: lifetime For NEW customers only Instant digital redemption Once you add your $50 credit to your aloSim account you have up to 12-months to use it — after that your credit will expire When you pay for a data plan you also get a free phone number (via Hushed) for the same duration of your plan that was purchased - IE 7 day eSim plan gives you a free 7-day phone number Purchased coupon must be redeemed and used within 12 months This deal is not stackable (one offer per aloSIM account) A $4.50 data package will last 7 days The data DOES expire, and you WILL NOT have any leftover data for your next trip unless it takes place within the validity period. While the eSIM never expires, the actual data package is only valid for the length of time stated at purchase (i.e. seven days after activation, 30 days after activation, etc.) So if you buy a seven-day package and only use a tiny bit, that package is still going to expire after seven days.
