Hello.

I'm having a problem with the gadget, and I'm not the only one, as you can see from the comments on Live Gallery. The problem is: the OK button in the options dialogue is not pressable even if you just re-confirm default settings. Once you open this window, there's one way out - the Cancel button. There's also a weird thing i noticed: the seconds input window is lower then the one in the shot on your blog. Might that have something to do with it? Also, please note I'm running a localised (Russian) version of Vista. Might this be the source of the problem?

You can see a shot of my window here:

This window won't close no matter what settings you input. It would be very nice of you if you corrected this error in a future update.
