ObjectDock always on top at startup in ObjectDock WinCustomize Forums

I am using the latest ObjactDock Plus on Windows Vista Home Premium 32. I have it set to show the dock as a drawer at the top of the screen with mouseover activation. Everytime I restart my PC the dock stays on top of everything else but the settings have not changed in OD properties. The only way I have found to correct this is to select the "Tabs always on top" button and then deselect it. However, this must be done with every restart. I have uninstalled OD P

[quote who="Daiwa" comment="1"]Something Karl Rove said crystallized it for me. We've elected a Poet Laureate more than we have a President. Maybe that will work out, maybe it won't, but all we've really heard is well-controlled, well-disciplined heraldic poetry.I'll now await the flame-throwers who will accuse me of all sorts of mental defects for mentioning a certain man's name.[/quote] I would have to agree.

Questions about Change in Current Events JoeUser Forums

Now that the election process is complete, I have had some time to allow the results to sink in. While we may disagree on the benefits of the outcome, I'm sure we can all agree that the end of the constant barrage of political advertising is a change for the better. However, Change is the topic that I am having the most difficulty with. Please understand that it is not change itself that

Reply to Obama Win Proves Racism Lives in Current Events Stardock Forums

[quote who="cityguy"]Yeah, but if people voted for Obama just because he's black, doesn't that mean McCain got votes for being white? I don't think it's that easy. I think in the wake of his win, the gravity of the first black president hit hard. It did for me, and I was extremely conflicted over who to vote (yes, I love both of these men; it was like watching two of my best friends fight). But when Obama won, it was about change. I am not sure what he will do, but it was great to wake u

[quote who="shadesofgrey" comment="7"]was chosen simply because I was Black If you really think he was chosen simply because he's black, you haven't been paying attention. If that's the case, how come Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson have never been seriously competitive in the past? Obama offered something that voters wanted: Hope and Change. You don't have to agree with them -- but to say that he only got there because he's black is bothersome to say the least. &nb

I was using Firefox and Opera as alternate browsers but now with IE7 there is simply no need. Of course it all comes down to what you personally prefer but many of the reasons for not using IE no longer apply.

Maybe if they come up with a fruity enough logo, you'll start seeing it in hollywood films instead of an apple. Heck, Palm just did it with their new generation pop tart logo. Looks like it belongs on a can of orange soda.</f

Is OD+ supposed to show up in the taskbar? in ObjectDock WinCustomize Forums

I've just installed the latest OD+ and I noticed that it shows up as an item in the taskbar. It has no functionality - it just sits there until I close OD+. It does not appear to be causing any problems that I'm aware of but it is a bit distracting. Is this SOP or a glitch?

Reply to Bush is an Embarrassment in Politics JoeUser Forums

It is not because they like Bush. They believe they have a better chance to make a living than where they come from. . . . . and yet they have so many other choices where President Bush is not the leader and better opportunities exist. <TABLE cell

Reply to Bush is an Embarrassment in Politics JoeUser Forums

If President Bush and his policies are so globally hated, why do we still have such a huge immigration problem i.e., millions scrambling to get in every year. And, YES....I've already checked last years stats and they're not all people from impoverished countries that would move to hell for a hot meal..........(in advance - nice try though) It's like a kid that screams at the top of his lungs that he HATES ice cream and then when nobody is looking

Reply to U.N. Panel Rejects Bush Stance on Military Action in Politics JoeUser Forums

Not to worry. When was the last time the UN took a stance on anything and backed it up (other than scandals and cocktail parties) It's a club for people with big mouths and small balls. The UN building needs to be relocated to Tehran or Pyongyang and the 4 Billion a year we dump into that cesspool can be redirected to something that wont be used against us. Seriously, the UN needs a major enema.

Actually, the most humerous aspect to this "jab" is......this is what their message has been reduced to. We can't get him in a national election so we'll do the next best thing - mock a US President in the undies of the french. On it's own, it is pretty funny though - and equally pathetic in it's under-lying message (pun intended)
