Ok everyone, I've been working on this one lately. All you have to do is go to this link
http://www.websamba.com/frankmania/active_users_dt.txt and copy the whole code to a new asp page with the same name as the text file (like this active_users_dt.asp). I used redbrad0's code and modified it (this is not a replacement file it's a new file that should be saved with the rest of your forum files). after you do that, copy this code to a new file and save it as <font color=red>"active_desktop.cdf"</font id=red> in the same folder with the rest of the files:
<?XML version="1.0"?>
<Channel>
<Schedule EndDate="2050.12.31">
<IntervalTime DAY="7" />
<EarliestTime HOUR="12"/>
<LatestTime HOUR="18"/>
</Schedule>
<Item HREF="http://forum.snitz.com/forum/active_users_dt.asp">
<Title>Active Users Desktop</Title> <!-- Required -->
<Usage VALUE="DesktopComponent"> <!-- Required -->
<OpenAs VALUE="HTML"/>
<Width VALUE="435" /> <!-- Width in pixels -->
<Height VALUE="70" /> <!-- Height in pixels -->
<CanResize VALUE="Yes"/> <!-- Yes (default) or No -->
</Usage>
</Item>
</Channel>
make sure that you make a link to the above file(active_desktop.cdf) after you copy it to that format(.cdf) in any page you like to.
use this picture for a link:
"http://www.websamba.com/frankmania/activeDT.gif"
Guys, feel free to elaborate on the idea or change things around..thanks for your interest. Happy Holidays
Note: works on i.e 4.0+ only(must have Active Desktop on).
Note: Sorry everyone, I forgot to mention you need the active users mod in order for this one to work. Find it here:

This could be pretty cool! Installed it and all seems well, some minor problems but should be easy to fix.
You forgot to take out the CyberGold Pop-up though. That can get annoying fast <img src=icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>

Hey frankie!
Nothing major. Had to play with the window size a little bit so didn't have to scroll right/left. Also, not sure if it is possible to fix this, haven't looked deep enough... When the active window tries to update itself, if spawns a new window. So if it's set tup refresh every minute, you get a new window every minute. Nothing horrible, but gets old fast!
lol Got that Icon off some site awhile ago. Can't remember where, probably get an e-mail someday asking me not to use it <img src=icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>

Slemmy,
First of all, how was your christmas? lots of gifts?!!
Secondly, I did this mod on the run, just to flirt with idea, that's all. For the page refreshing part I think it's done thru the xml file by setting the schedule tags(but not sure how to do so) I have to play with this alittle bit. I thought it's a good idea in case you're working on the desktop to have a close eye on the snitzers!<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

Well done Frankie,
I guess, we need the "online" Mod to use your Mod ???
(Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e37'
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot find the input table or query 'FORUM_ONLINE'. Make sure it exists and that its name is spelled correctly.
.../active_users_dt.asp, line 187
?- What are the table parametre so I can add the table manualy or a link to the appropriate setup file?
Also, I get the following IE(5.5) error clicking on the shortcut to active_desktop.cdf ? " IE doesn't support synchronizing this type of URL."

Wedont,
Nothing to do with this mod beside what's mentioned above, but you're right, you need to have the <font color=red>active users</font id=red> mod in order for this to work..I added that in a note at the bottom in my original post.
For your IE5.5 error, I don't know what's going on(anyone?!!)
