When I read this, I LOL and said that it was rediculous, but tried it anyway and I'll be a SOB if it didn't work!!! No it is right on again in every program. I use Maverick Lite now and it works flawlessly. I still have the Snaptic Compass installed but I don't really need it with Maverick. I just make sure and keep it away from magnetic things now.
Maybe you should see if this works for you.

I'll have to give it a try. Thanks!
