Well I feel really dumb, but I found out later that the reason I wasn't getting popup alerts was simply because in Settings under Alarms and Notifications, the box for popup alerts under Reminders wasn't checked. Duh, so simple.

So I installed G-alarm for nothing. But I'm happy cz I'm getting the popup notifications now.

Now I'm wondering whether the windows bug fix in G-alarm did anything helpful or if I'll wish later I hadn't checked it...I'm wary of applying fixes when I don't seem to have a problem, although all the G programs seem to be very well-written and maintained, so I'm sure it didn't hurt anything...does anyone know what exactly it does?
