I just had a breakthrough. I was testing some different configs and they
were all working. I couldn't understand it since I know I had tried some
of them before. I started this after a fresh boot, thinking maybe that
had something to do with it. So I went back to the config I posted here
and it worked! WTF?!

If I added and icon to the tray, it works, if I toggled hidden icons, it
works. I couldn't understand it. Then I opened winamp to start working
and listen to music. That's when it fell to crap again.

When I open winamp, literunner resizes and redefines xtaskbar's X
coordinate to make room for the controls. If I hide the music controls,
then update weather with winamp open and resize the xtray, it still
works. So now my problem is this. How do I make sure the xtaskbarx
definition stay?

Turns out all I had to do was change the script like this:

;==================
;Weather Related
;==================
*Script bang !UpdateWeather 
  *Script exec !WazupCheck Weather
  *Script exec !Reload
  *Script exec !netReloadModule $ColorModule$
  *Script exec !MusicHide
  *Script exec !MusicShow
  *Script exec !LabelRefresh WeatherLabel_
  *Script exec !LabelRefresh WeatherLabel2_
  *Script exec !LabelDestroy WeatherLabel_
  *Script exec !LabelDestroy WeatherLabel2_
*Script ~bang

With this, the only "problems" is that the music controls/taskbar appear
to flicker during an update. I can accept that with great fortitude.
However, when winamp is not running, it screws up the taskbar. 

So I need to have an "IF winamp running" statement in there somewhere.
Can one of you script kiddies help me there? Is this the type of line I
would use?

!if [conditional] [command_if_true][command_if_false]

How do I tell the script winamp is running?
