Version: The Weather Channel Desktop 6.0.0.11
"Thank goodness for System Restore! You'll be sorry..."
Pros: There isn't anything I like about this program.
Cons: If you want Yahoo toolbar and a lot of other garbage, download it.
Summary: I chose NOT to install Yahoo toolbar MANY times during the downoad. It installed it anyway. I had to use system restore to get it off my PC. ***Come on Download.com -- take this off of your site. It's full of adware and spyware.

Version: The Weather Channel Desktop 6.0.0.11
Pros: What is this doing on download.com? I thought they'd agreed to get rid of the adware.
Cons: It's adware. It shouldn't even be on download.com. Of course, there's nowhere to report it. Isn't that curious? When download.com was restarted, they said they'd get rid of the adware. That promise sure didn't last long.
Summary: Don't even bother with it.

Version: The Weather Channel Desktop 6.0.0.11
Pros: They dont warn you but it is not compatible with W7 or 64-bit Vista and if you download it on those machines it will mess them up. You could spend a lot of time and money repairing the damage, as I did.Otherwise, it is great.
Cons: They dont warn you but it is not compatible with W7 or 64-bit Vista and if you download it on those machines it will mess them up. You could spend a lot of time and money repairing the damage, as I did.
Summary: Tantamout to dowloading malware on W7 or Vista 64-bit machines.
