- Captain Tray Pro 5.1, Undoubtedly Useful. — Personally I use it. I like to have my things well arranged and each in the right place. This software allows me to organize windows on my desktop. It looks like my favorite two-panel file-managers, Total Commander and Frigate. In fact, moving a window from the taskbar to a tray and vice versa is as simple as moving a file between panels. Of course, any application can be moved…
- Weather Alarm Clock 1.2. Whatever-In-Tray — The Windows «system notifications area», a.k.a. «system tray», was eventually designed to be a uniform place for helpful information. However, in fact, it’s not very useful now; only a couple of colorful icons not related to the system make it look pretty. There is only one really useful thing in the tray; namely, the clock, you know. But can you twist any use from the tray clock besides just showing clock…

- Alarm++ 7.05, Regularly Organized — Alarm++ is a smart solution capable of reminding you to do something or even do something on its own. Speaking in technical words, it’s a hybrid of a scheduler and reminder; speaking in human words, it’s a way to organize all your regular or upcoming events at once. The heart of Alarm++’s functionality consists of two rather simple things: When To Do and What…
- Tech-Pro World Clock 2 — Today, we live in the world of global connections. This definition equally applies to businesses that can be separated by thousands of miles and personal contacts, where friends can be made all around the world — from Hawaii to Sydney, from Tokyo to Moscow, from Iceland to Los Angeles.

- XP Tools 7.76, Rule Over Your Windows! — When you’re trying to enchance and control your Windows, you have many options and utilities. The two most common extremes are «one utility for each single function» and «a suite for all service tasks».

- Mines XP — There are games that were once created to stay for long. They do not demonstrate mind-numbing graphics, feature amazing soundtracks and cutting-edge in-game technologies that modern entertainment titles have to offer. On the contrary, they are simple, compact, have a rather straightforward «storyline» and are primarily intended for testing your skills and entertaining you during short breaks in your mundane activities. These are casual games, which have…

If you would like to stay with the Home edition and yet be able to efficiently manage…
- AlphaXP - all you need to have full control over transparency in Windows XP — Transparency is one of the coolest features that Windows Vista can boast. It creates the eye-candy effect that so many users expect to see in a next-gen OS, but, unfortunately, does not have much practical value.
