Looking for Reminder program

I'm looking for a cheap, adware and spyware free, Reminder program similar to what MS Outlook Calendar has, you know, to remind you of meetings, appointments etc., this pc does not have Outlook. Thank you.

HeyYa Old Friend....nice to see ya..

Whats your OS....I know of some for 95/98......nothing for xp though

 

While it's not an "onboard" program of your own, and Yahoo's privacy policies (in practice, anyway, as opposed to their "official" statement) are sometimes questionable, what about Yahoo Calendar?

 

Rainlendar is a customizable calendar that displays the current month. It is a very lightweight application that doesn't use much system resources or take much space on your desktop.

Hey acadia,

While I have never used Karen's Countdown Timer....I have used many of her other Spyware free Power Tools....Cookie viewer, Whois, Directory printer....etc.

Karen's Power Tools---> http://www.karenware.com/powertools.asp

Karen's Countdown Timer II v3.4---> http://www.karenware.com/powertools/ptcount2.asp

 

Hey, SnowGuy, how ya doing? I've been on XP since July. Everyone, thanks for the suggestions, I'm going to check them out, and please keep the suggestions coming.

Thank you,
Acadia

 

ive used karen's countdown timer. its very simple and alerts you to an exact time . Rainlendar is skinable so you can have any look you want with it. heres a screenshot, i forgot to include my mouse curser but its hovering over the number seven.
on the day of the appointment the event will popup at 12 midnight and each reboot, as well as the number being colored differently

 

i'll keep quiet after this post, but here's another skin

Very nice little appy. Just intalled it I like it! Just wish it had a clock built into the calendar.

 

Ok, Karen's Countdown Timer appears to do the trick, thank you Bubba.

you can get skins from here
you can get a clock from here
i dont have it, but its linked to trusted sites. ive changed my tray clock which you can see in this thread if you like it i'll have a think to remember where i got it

 

Thanks, Iceni. I didn't make myself clear. What I really would like is an alarm clock built into the calendar. Currently Rainlender seems to note only the date of an appointment. It would be nice if it included the time as well.

 

You can have my ex-wife. She'll remind you about everything!

 

She sound like a wonderful, thoughtful, and organized person.

 

Wait till you meet her mother (ex-mother-in-law). You'll never need another program again, or up-date.

 

Dazed_and_confuse (can I call you D&C?) Have you tried a program name LClock? It's a system toolbar clock that replaces the windows clock and it has a built in calendar. You set it for a time on a certain date. I haven't used the calendar yet so I don't know if there is a sound for it. I think iceni60 uses it (aleast it looks like the same clock). http://www.softpedia.com/public/cat/9/1/9-1-148.shtml

 

yep, i do use it but, i just checked the readme and it's a stripped down version of it(i always wondered where the calender was ) well maybe i do have another calender somewhere i also found this in the readme. anyway, you probably dont want my advice after that, but i use a wall canender for important things, just in case something happens to my computer

 

The clock itself is a stripped down version of TClock. I don't use the calendar. I just use the clock itself.

 

I'll take a look at it. Thanks!

 

here is Lclock calander with alarm built in and longhorn clock bulit in too

Thanks, Iceni60, I really like it!!

 

glad you like it Daisey, i like it too, it just leaves the problem of what to do with rainlendar right now i have them both what a horrible problem to have
