Your clock is awesome, but I tackle a problem.
With MSXML4 I managed to load clock to ObjectDock with no crash, but whatever I do, no matter what city I choose, there's only Groton, MA on the background (clock title changes still) and it's always 10:52 AM. I can't figure out what I need to do to make it work corretly.

i installed the clock - BUT:
1) i only seem to be able to change the location when i put it directly in the .ini file
2) the map only shows when i start the clock for the first time with the "Groton" (or whatever) location. when i click it or do anything else it vanishes and i have a black clock. even when i restart O-Dock with the manually changed location. it just wont show again
any advice? i meanits half the fun without the map

I've the same problem of Greenglade.
What's "Groton"?
Why my clock is Black? Where is the world?

"Groton" is the City which is "built in" in the .ini File - the City it starts with. Or so it seems...

Well... the clock now works, but it's black!
It doesn't show the "planet" in the background...
Anyone have the solution?
...and also a list of Zip code...

IS there any way to have the world clock display the time digitally above it instead of the location? I stink at reading analog clocks, but this one is so nice!

For those who still have the problem of the black background: I had it myself and I found the solution elsewhere on the internet.
It seems the World.vbs script had to be adjusted. With thanks to AndreasV.

Hello Judge,
I build GIS (Geographic Information Systems) data for a living (and I am a Land Surveyor) in Florida so I love anything that uses globes or maps. I was thrilled to see that you are re-centering the image to the users location (ctrl-click icon and change your zip code). That is very slick!!!
The one thing I seem to have trouble remembering throughout a days work is todays day and date. I like being able to quickly roll over the original ObjectDock Clock to see the day and date. Would you consider changing your world clock to display this info over the clock instead of the location name? (Usually I can remember where I am at any given time of day) 
I love your work. keep it up and have fun with it!

I wasted a day to install this world clock and I failed to change the location, the longitude/latitude, the time zone or anything else, because it restores all in a second.

Find two files named SysStatsCOM.dll and Hook.dll in SysStats folder or somewhere else, and then copy them into ObjectDock folder.

My copy of the original ObjectDock is under Program Files and is not open. ObjectDock Plus is under Stardock\ObjectDesktop. I'll take out the original program, and see if that helps. I can't understand why others were able to unzip and use immediately.
Thanks for all your efforts!
