			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After intensive testing of Sysinternals Desktops utility I have found new one that is also FREE and that works better than Desktops.</p>
<p>Things that I missed in Desktops were:</p>
<ul>
<li>you couln&#8217;t move opened programs between desktops</li>
<li>Firefox and Winamp (possible some other programs too)  wouldn&#8217;t work on other desktop if they are allready opened on one</li>
<li>desktop backgrounds would disapeer</li>
</ul>
<p>New program that I found is called Vista/XP virtual desktop manager. Some of the options that it provide are:</p>
<ul>
<li>Full screen desktop/window manager/preview with full drag and drop managing</li>
<li>Desktop switch indicator</li>
<li>An infinite number of desktops</li>
<li>Watch the windows move in real time as you drag them around in the window manager</li>
<li>Multiple monitor support</li>
<li>Window menus</li>
<li>Tray icons for each desktop</li>
<li>Per-desktop backgrounds</li>
<li>Configurable colors, fade speeds, hotkeys, etc.</li>
<li>Uses Vista&#8217;s live thumbnails</li>
<li>XP support</li>
<li>And much more!</li>
</ul>
<p>You can find more info about program and download it on <a title="Vista/XP virtual desktop manager" href="http://www.codeplex.com/vdm" target="_blank">this link</a>.</p>
<p>Here are some screenshoots.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I wasn&#8217;t satisfied with windows defragment tool so I Googled little about possible replacements and among others found <a title="JkDefrag home page" href="http://www.kessels.com/JkDefrag/index.html">JkDefrag</a>.</p>
<p>Here is a quote from web site of a JkDefrag:</p>
<blockquote>
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td align="left"></td>
<td><span style="font-family: Times New Roman,Times,serif;"> JkDefrag is a disk defragmenter and optimizer     for Windows 2000/2003/XP/Vista/2008/X64.     Completely automatic and very easy to use, fast, low overhead,     with several optimization strategies, and can handle floppies, USB     disks, memory sticks, and anything else that looks like a disk to Windows.     Included are a Windows version, a commandline version     (for scheduling by the task scheduler or for use from administrator scripts),     a screensaver version, a DLL library (for use from programming languages),     versions for Windows X64, and the complete sources. </span></td>
<td align="center"><a href="http://www.kessels.com/JkDefrag/License%20gpl.txt"><img src="http://www.kessels.com/JkDefrag/gnu-head-sm.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="129" height="122" /></a></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</blockquote>
<p>Program is very simple, just unzip and run it, no installation, no configuration and what is most important it works well.</p>
<p>On home page of <a title="JkDefrag home page" href="http://www.kessels.com/JkDefrag/index.html">JkDefrag </a>you can download sources, executables and read some more info about it.</p>
<p>Read tips before defragmenting, they will increase speed of defragmentation.</p>
