As we all know Windows 7 comes with new Superbar which is a redesigned form of the old Taskbar. The main features of this new Superbar are as follows:
- A little increased height for better view and usablity
- Iconized Taskbar buttons to save space
- Live Taskbar thumbnails for easier navigation
There are many other small features in the new Superbar which make it far better than the old Taskbar.
Now if you are not using Windows 7 but like the Superbar look, you can get it in your Windows XP or Vista.
"SBar" is a Taskbar replacement for Windows XP and Vista which brings the same Superbar functionality. Thanks to "DimitarCC" for creating this nice application.
As you can see in the above screenshot which was taken from Windows XP but looks almost same as Windows 7.

Thanks, but I already tried the installer and it comes up with the same thing. Should I uninstall the previous .NET framework?
Its really frustrating. Any ideas?
Thanks again :P
VG
^^ Thats strange. You should try uninstallation. May be it works?
Kevin
Okay thanks. I'll try that when I next go on my pc, because I'm using my new iPod touch to use the Internet :P

when i try 2 install it, it gives an error message sayin "you need windows NT with service pack 3 or later"
i tried it on several comps. still same message.
VG
^^ Are you using it in XP? Have you installed SP3?

DO NOT USE THIS PROGRAM! Current version causes problems that can no be undone in Vista Basic Home. Do not use this program unless you want your taskbar to never be one-line again.

the viglance works like a charm, if you want to simulate the taskbar of windows 7 for the windows xp.

Why would you want to run this in Win7 - the whole point of this is to emulate the Win7 taskbar?
swaggy
yup its a buggy n un optimised piece ........... viglance is way forward
but it will certainly be the best with major improvements as stated by u all
