I was also suprised not to find SystemMeter plugin in Yahoo file archives since it is, by far, the best plugin for Ppro. (imho) Version 1.35 is latest and works on XP without any previous installation of programs described in that link you posted. Sure enough, SystemMeter allways produces that error if one tries exiting Ppro without first unloading SystemMeter bar. But it's not an issue for me, since I never exit Ppro. :) Following your sugestion, I upgraded WinXP PowerPro to v4.8, but it works just fine, as it did in version 4.1 So I guess it must be something in Vista that is cousing SystemMeter to fail. It's such a shame, right now I'm considering scraping Vista, formating my hard-drive and installing XP on laptop just because of SystemMeter plugin. :) I've set it up so nicely, so that it displays all important info (cpu usage graph, incoming adsl trafic, outcoming traffic, and ADSL spped graph) in one little bar. Here are screenshots... http://free-zg.htnet.hr/stardust7/screenshots/40tudeDialog.gif http://free-zg.htnet.hr/stardust7/screenshots/Opera.gif (SystemMeter bar is in upper right corner of the screen, bellow that Ppro bar displaying online time, ram, uptime, and clock) Once I got used to this setup, now I can't be withought it. Do you know any other program that can display that stuff that Sysetm Meter does on those screenshots? :)
