I want to add a particular gadget (from the Internet). I click 'Add', and it takes me to Windows Live sign-in. I sign in, but then what? How do I get the gadget? Baffled.

The one I want is the one which says 88° at http://gallery.live.com/search.aspx?q=weather

But, it just takes me to http://www.live.com/?...&ppud=4&wa=wsignin1.0

ALQ.exe and others

XP takes 30 minutes to boot

What OS are you using ? If are using Vista or Windows 7 open control go to Appearance and Themes or Personalization and there is a listing for gadgets and how to download them and add them

I've tried it using Windows Vista and Windows 7.

Adding gadgets is no problem (i.e. the ones that are already on the computer). But, when I want to download another one from the Internet (well, the one mentioned above), it takes me to the Windows Live sign-in page, which is a very cluttered page, and there's no indication of what I should click on once I've signed in to Windows Live.
