I just posted a message a few hours ago on how to do that.
(this assumes Windows 98 or Me or 2000. The procedure is slightly different for XP)


Look here on how to post it in your messages.

Look here for the desktop message

If you have XP, let me know and I'll write up the procedure for that.

I would love to have my countdown on my desktop. But I have XP, is it that much different??

Not really. It's just that they changed the way to create it.

(Assuming you've figured out to get the script and made the countdown.htm file)

Right click on your desktop. Click on PROPERTIES. Click on the Desktop tab. Down at the bottom, click on CUSTOMIZE DESKTOP.
Click on the WEB tab. Click NEW. Click BROWSE and find your countdown.htm file. Click OPEN when you find your file. Click OK.

The new countdown will now (it should) appear in the list. Click on the box next to it (a check mark will appear). Click OK. Click APPLY (then OK).

You should see it now and you can move it and resize it like a regular window.

Good luck!

This would be a great question on our Technical Support Board. I'll move it there for you. Thanks for posting.
