This contribution can work, as shown by the screenshot; it's just you have to go through a few login steps to get it working. It's a problem with Active Desktop.

For me, it throws a full size browser window requiring login to Zen Cart. I login to this browser window, then refresh the Desktop Data window so it works, and once I do that, I can logout of the browser window and the Desktop Data window continues to work.

I'm starting to think it's because when I normally login to Zen Cart, I have to go through 3 login steps. Maybe Active Desktop is only expecting 1 step.

This is probably a contribution which is going to work very differently for people.

Whatever the case, I find the contribution really useful as it is. Obviously a lot of people are having problems with it, but I don't have a fix.
