Vista Gadget Pulls Friends From Xbox.com

[Fmstrat]

Hi Everyone,

So, I've liked the Silverlight gadgets, and the gamercard gadgets, but they've all had a number of shortcomings for me. Things like how Silverlight can't be transparent, and you always have to manually enter your friends, and you can only have a certain number on many of the existing gadgets. Below is the gadget I've built that solves all of these issues.

Looks like on some machines the ActiveX settings browser wasn't registering properly.  I think I've fixed that issue, though it *may* have lead to another issue I'm experiencing on one computer only.  If logging in through the settings window doesn't work, let me know the details described in the updated first post.

Btw, just re-adding the gadget to the sidebar will check for an updated version.

Thanks.
