TaskArrange is a simple utility that lets you rearrange the buttons of the Windows taskbar.
Sometimes we open our programs in a specific sequence, to keep their
taskbar buttons in a desired order. But what happens if a program crashes or we close it, and then we open it again? That's
right - its task button ends up last in the taskbar. Windows itself does not allow us to move the task buttons around, so
we are stuck with two options: either accept the new order, or close everything and reopen them in the preferred order. TaskArrange
brings an end to this annoyance, by letting us do exactly what we want: reorder the task buttons.

don't really need to check often? Do you run MS Exchange as a network FAX server and should keep it always open? Hide-It is

in the taskbar, the application is also removed from the Alt-Tab chain, so it won't disturb your task switching, it's just
as if it wasn't there. You can later access it's window un-hiding it, you just need to right-click in the small Hide-it's
icon in the system tray area and select it.

version from this web, That link

an older program but I had to try it and it works great on my XP machine.

and uses very little resources. As a bonus you can also assign hotkeys to the programs on YOUR menu. Any program that can
be started with a commandline can be used with NotAgain.

Free Launch Bar is a Free replacement for the standard Quick Launch bar. All
functions presented in Quick Launch are also in Free Launch Bar. However, the Free Launch Bar is fully compatible with Quick
Launch because it uses the same folder for shortcuts. But there is one huge difference. Free Launch Bar allows you to combine
your shortcuts into groups. This feature looks like popup menus. This vastly improves the management of your shortcuts and
save working space on your desktop. By using Free Launch Bar, you speed up the launching of your applications like never before.
