"Much more control over your icons."
Pros: Pretty easy to use, good customization options, especially good with positions and hiding, adds a lot to the icon options that windows has, and free!

Version: Iconoid 3.8.4
"Best Little DeskTop Icon Manager Around!"
Pros: White Lightening must be drinkin' some of that stuff! Your icons are supposed to disappear. That's what this does and more!!! I've been using this for over a year. Works as advertised. Flawless on WinXP! Not only does it hide your desktop icons ect., but it has "HotCorners"! Pick a corner of your monitor in the settings dialog. When anyone walks into the room (like kids ect.,) and you don't want them to see what your working on, like your financial biz, just run your cursor to your chosen corner and ALL active apps will be instantly minimized to the task bar! This is a very handy little app that's worth your time downloadong and instaling. Puts desktop icons out of sight til you need them with just a click on the desktop. Very good, no conflicts, and no adware or 3rd party junk.

"Are icons hiding your beautiful desktop picture? Try this"
Pros: Not a needed program but it is pretty cool that you can make all your ugly desktop icons disappear all at one time so you can enjoy your desktop picture.It also has several options so that you can customize it to your liking.
If you like a clean desktop without all those Icons cluttering it up,try this. It is FREE and spyware/adware free also.

Version: Iconoid 3.8.1
Pros: Anyone who tries to keep their desktop clean probably doesn't for long as things get messy fast. I was using Desksweeper to hide my icons and Iconsaver to save my icon positions. I was thinking "Hey, wouldn't it be cool if there was a program that would auto hide my desktop icons" so that I wouldn't have to click on a tray icon everytime I wanted to hide/show them.
So I searched Google not really expecting to find anything and stumbled apon Iconoid...and so much more! It is incredibly configurable with a large array of options. You can save your icon positions or auto arrange them according to the programs built in presets. What a great find. This program is a keeper. I can't believe it's free.
Cons: Doesn't come standard with windows! ;)
