Thank you so much for this! It looks great!
Need help please!! to you!!
Well, i was wondering that if you guys can get the "Progress taskbar" for windows xp pro or home or other versions.
I want the taskbar to display percentages and colours like the one in windows seven while transfer file to file and at the bottom taskbar it shows percentages and colours.
well, how do we get that then?? i've been searching on the internet for ages and cant find anything quite like it. i've got windows seven taskbar now but it not doing anything, the only thing it does is change the way it looks and startmenus that about it. but what i really want is the "Progress taskbar" it display colours and percentages while transfer file to file or file from file. etc
so can anyone give us a better way for this?? where can i download and where can i find the website or exe files and so forth??
i am currently using windows xp pro with SP2.
cheers and a lot of thanks too if anyone does know what to do or where to get.
