Microsoft terminates Windows Gadgets with extreme prejudice.

Hey, Windows users! Microsoft has some bad, or possibly good, news.
It's recommending that all users disable the Windows Sidebar and Gadgets — immediately.
"Disabling the Windows Sidebar and Gadgets can help protect customers from vulnerabilities that involve the execution of arbitrary code by the Windows Sidebar when running insecure Gadgets," states a security advisory released Tuesday (July 10) by Microsoft.
"In addition, Gadgets installed from untrusted sources can harm your computer and can access your computer's files, show you objectionable content, or change their behavior at any time."
