dont say you hate the program without any reason why you hate it, or atleast give what you believe to be a better app than it.Originally posted by Guest@Nov 23 2003, 05:26 PM
Weatherbug is spyware and I hate the program anyway.
otherwise your post is a waste of space. very much why many people do not reply to guest users.

Is Weatherbug spyware??
It came on my new computer and I thought I uninstalled it but it still seems to be around although not used.
There is a window by my desk and I can look out B) and see if it is sunny or not and we have a nice indoor/outdoor thermometer that gives the temp! h34r:
We dont download many programs or go to shady B) websites and do use a firewall so I think I am on top of spyware (Also have javascript disabled and REJECT cookies except when I want them-- Gotta LOVE that NETSCAPE browser!!

According to a few websites, it is NOT spyware. but appears to contain adware, and alot of people confuse them as being the same.Originally posted by CALM@Dec 14 2003, 07:27 PM

yes, having a monitoring station is nice. Some of those indoor/outdoor stations can be hooked up to a computer also. I use a few perl module to retrieve my weather from a METAR station - local airport, then it sends it to my mailing list, this way i can get a 10 day forecast in advance. This gives me the Air Pressure, Wind Speed, Humidity, Wind Chill, Clouds conditions. plus alot more data. and I run another script to give me the current temperature. I have this automatically everyday, so i dont have to go tracking down weather reports, or sitting through 1 1/2 hours of news just to catch a 5-day forcast.
these are also not good anymore

Desired versions: older than 6.....
Description: you know what i'm talking about.
I love the convenience of Weatherbug but I've also had a lot of bad luck using Weatherbug (which is FULL of spy/adware!
Luckily I found a free replacement called "Weather Watcher" that does the same things as weatherbug but minus the crap! It's very customizable and doesn't seem to take up much space at all. I'll never use Weatherbug again!
