Does anyone use a desktop weather program?

I used to use weatherbug or some such shyt, but it was teh suck.
I just installed accuweather and it appears to have bugs crawling out of it in every direction.
Does anyone use something that actually works and isn't bloated with spyware, adware, and malware?
My guess is that something like that is nonexistant.

There's actually a freeware weather program similar to Weatherbug. The name escapes me at the moment, but if you go to the Software forum and search the "Free programs" thread for "weatherbug", you should find the link

ForecastFox - Firefox plugin. It's unobtrusive, not buggy, and no spyware. It sits in the browser status bar, and just pops up for a few seconds when it gets an update. The popup is in the bottom corner of your screen, like an Outlook or Symantec message.

I use weatherpulse by tropic design .. simple little app shows everything that weather bug would and then some. Have yet to get spyware or any other alerts from it.

Meteorologist for the Mac. Works flawlessly and they fix it whenever the Weather Channel breaks it. :thumbsup: to Open Source.

:thumbsup: for it too.....I also like the profiles setup....helps keep track of the few places you want to know what the weather's like.

I use mceWeather on my MCE box. Easier than changing to the weather channel! 🙂

I went with weatherpulse.
It looks like it does more than I even wanted and there's no ad-suck.
ForecastFox sounded sexy, but I'm not diggin Firefox just yet.
Thanks to everyone for the suggestion!!!
