Publisher's description of Alt-Tab Thingy
From Stephen Clark:If you are not familiar with the Alt-Tab task switcher in Windows, it's a keyboard short-cut (hot-key) to enable fast switching between applications/windows. This feature has been in Windows since Windows 3.0 and is largely unchanged since Windows 95. Alt-Tab Thingy is a replacement to add brand new features to help you switch tasks faster and more efficiently than ever before.
Version 3.3 fixes a problem with applications that aren't responding.

Version: Alt-Tab Thingy 3.4.1
"Slows computer. Mouse Necessary. Defeats Purpose."
Pros: It is nice because it shows a screenshot of the window. I can easily see what I'm looking at. Also, you can do multiple tasks by right clicking on the icon.
Cons: Unfortunately, it slows down the computer, especially with mouseover popups on the taskbar. Also, you must use the mouse to select the window. And it stays open until you click something.
Summary: I think that unless you have 1+ gigabytes of RAM, you should not use this because it will slow down your computer. You also have to use the mouse to change the window, so it kind of defeats the purpose of having the keyboard shortcut.
