dude what happened to your site mixensoft? I really want vicon lol

[MixenDixonCBB]

It died (the site). You can still get the newest version of ViCon at DeviantArt or Lee-Soft forums.

Not everyone has $100+ burning a hole in their pocket.

boring music

[MixenDixonCBB]

I know, but I was utterly devoid of other options. I made this on a new PC with only a single Mozart song on it.

@MixenDixonCBB Thanks I found it but I am having trouble setting it up. This is kind of embarrassing, but I am a newbie at this kind of thing, and was wondering if you could please explain the steps and what I need to do to get this running. It looks great and I would really like to have the Vista hover highlight. Thank you, your stuff on deviantart looks great!

@coooooooow Agree. That is what I am using but I am stumped about the clock. It won't show the date without me having to make it bigger.

orr just torrent a cracked Windows 7 iso image.

It installs as OEM Ultimate version. JUST as legal as if I was to give an arm and a leg for the official CD. Plus it will run about 4 times as fast.

[Hunger4Power]

i agree

[cvhijgyu7]

they can download it duhh

[TViNeoz]

Good

Well, some people don't have the $100+ dollars or want to spend the money for it. Me personally, I don't have the money to spend on the new OS and I'd like to wait a lil' while to see the reviews and stuff. Until then, I'll keep on enjoying Windows XP. Lol.
