Default Xp Post-it type notes

Hello

My trial of Windows Vista has gone haywire and abysmally slow, so I'm going back to XP. I really, really liked the Post-It type notes on the desktop, is there a similiar gadget for XP?

The ones I've googled for have much too much functionality (voice/emailing them to people etc..) I just want notes I can 'stick' on the desktop.

Thanks,

Steve

Hi Steve

AT Notes is good - I have used it for years.

You can set the notes so that they hide until you reach an 'alarm' date, so its a good reminder system.

Here is the link to version 9.5:-

If you don't have the licence for the track or vid, it won't play!

Hello

It wasn't that bad: It played all my DivX and Music. Just one day it went slow, really, really slow and I couldn't fix it.

Works fine for me. It's played everything I've thrown at it.

Erm, isn't that to be expected? If it did play licensed stuff without a license on the machine, that would be called piracy.
