Default TClockEx deactivating

I run TClockEx, which modifies what is in my clock box: I have a
two-boxes high taskbar, which gives me room for three lines there, so I
have, in yellow on brown,

(except right-justified), but the thing about TClockEx is that it is
entirely configurable, so you can have what (and in whatever colours)
you want. (On my work machine, I have something slightly different,
including the week number.) It also gives me a pop-up calendar, which is
useful.

The thing is, I occasionally find - usually after a period of inactivity
- that it has deactivated, returning me to the boring black-on-grey
(well, presumably default toolbar colours)

of the normal clock. (XP and beyond gives you the "Friday" if your
taskbar is high enough.)

Any idea what's causing this? I'm using a fairly unmodified XP Home SP3
here, but it also happens on the work machine, which is I think some
version of XP Pro, but heavily customised by the company.

Not a problem - I can always restart TClockEx, from the link in Start |
Programs | Start-up - I just wondered if anyone knew why it was
happening.

We need a reversal of the old saying: "DON'T do unto others as you would have
them NOT do unto you." (Paraphrase from "The Moral Maze", 1998-11-21: it was an
attempt - quite good I thought - to get a modern [and non-specific] version.)
