I have the Configure Kontact in front of me and all I see is an Update All Stations and Stop Weather Service buttons. There is a check mark button and an X button. There is an area to type in an address but I don't know where to aquire an address for a weather service in my area. So I guess I need some more help here. > > >> This pertains to the named icons which I like to use the text under the >> icons. Is there a way to rename the icons??
