Get Windows Seven taskbar on Windows XP

Woah nelly! That is awesome.
I’ve moved on to Win7 at home, but at work I’m still using WinXP and probably won’t be upgrading any time soon, so I’m definitely gonna try this out and see how it works because I love the superbar.

And thanks for posting about this. I completely randomly ended up here via a standalone stack link and then on a whim decided to check the home page and bam! there it is – a post on viglance 🙂

Hi, I’ve used ViGlance for almost two years up to around 6 months ago. The reason I stopped using it is that I found it caused conflicts with other apps. It caused MS Works word processor to scroll down continuously, making it unusable. It caused the Start Menu to have unacceptable delays when opening either the menu or sub groups. It caused PStart, ASuite and Symenu to have these same delays.

At first I thought it was the programs themselves, then I came across two tiny programs the did similar things to ViGlance. I use Vista and ViGlance only works for the icons, nothing else works. So I tried these other two programs, Transbar and Taskbaric, which I found on Rocket Dock’s site.

Since removing ViGlance I’ve had none of the problems mentioned. I have reinstalled and removed ViGlance just to check it was this that caused the problems and each time ViGlance was started it caused the problems above, so there’s no question they were caused by ViGlance.

If you want the taskbar buttons iconised I recommend Taskbaric. It’s only a tiny program but it works, unlike ViGlance!!

YAY!!! Its the last thing i needed to make my pc look like win7!
