How to Get the Vista Taskbar Thumbnail Preview in Windows XP
If you can’t leave Windows XP but love some of the new features of Vista specially the thumbnail preview, then here is the chance to get it without upgrading your XP to Vista or installing a Vista transformation pack.
I present to you Visual Tooltip. Visual Tooltip allows you have the thumbnail preview feature of Vista and also to switch between multiple desktop applications using a graphic interface. You can also create a dock where you can easily place all your favorite and most used application shortcuts. What I also love about visual tooltip is that it lets you hide your XP taskbar to make it look like a Mac OS.

Thank you, i got my taskbar stuck on the left side too, and tried everything except just clicking and dragging down.
i know this off the topic sir but i dunno where to post my question..
my problem is about my 2 laptop which im trying to share files. both r connected to a hub switch and have internet connection. 1 running on XP prof and the other is vista home.
napag connect ko na po both. yung vista po nakaka access dun sa XP ng files. pero yung XP machine nakikita lang yun shared folder ng vista tapos pag try ko open hinahanapan ako ng log in name at password. wala naman ako nilagay na password sa vista. i hope u can post a topic regarding the said issue..
go to “Network and Sharing Center” –> turn off “password protected sharing”
