    Virtual Desktop is the one I'm using too. Anyone know how to change the colour of those round shortcut keys? They clash horribly with my black taskbar.

    Another problem: ever since I installed Virtual Desktop, I have problems downloading files to my desktop. In firefox, when I choose to download a file to the desktop, the file is saved instead in this folder: "C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\__"

    Anything I can do to fix this?

    he's not using anything. it's just windows. launch the apps you want and resize the window.

    are you new to the windows world? you may want to hit a bookstore and pick up a Dummies book on windows or some other form of reference book. it's a handy thing to have around when you need help.

    Its not a program. Its just XP. Open four apps, right click the mouse on the task bar and choose "Tile Windows Vertically". :) :)
