WeatherEye

Ever feel like your Windows XP PC is just dragging its feet? If you're nodding along, then you might want to check out Windows Eye. It’s a handy little tool originally put together by The Weather Network to keep an eye on your computer’s health and performance. What it does is pretty clever it slips some registry keys into your system so it can fire up automatically every time you restart. No more forgetting to run your diagnostics!

And yeah, it really does help give your machine a fresh burst of speed. It’s like a mini tune up for your OS. Plus, if you’re running Windows Vista, no worries WeatherEye got a full makeover to work smoothly there too. But here’s the fun part: it’s not just about performance. Windows Eye also pops open a separate window with live satellite maps, up to the minute weather conditions, and even the day’s forecast. Just click the little weather icon next to your clock in the start menu, and you’re good to go.

Version 6.0.2.5 takes it a step further you can hop online and connect directly to The Weather Channel for even more detailed info. Imagine getting real time updates and forecasts for more than 2,000 locations worldwide, right from your desktop. The advanced edition even lets you flip between six different viewing modes, so you can customize how you see the weather while you browse or work.

Best of all, you can take it for a test drive with a free demo. See for yourself how Windows Eye can speed up your PC and keep you informed about the weather all at the same time. It’s one of those tools that does double duty without getting in your way.
