Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This free utility replaces the Windows Taskbar, finding a better way to access shortcuts. ObjectDock displays the icons of the currently running applications so you can quickly switch among them. It also holds icons that launch your favorite programs. The application magnifies the icons and displays the window title as your cursor passes over it, which helps you find what you need even when you're running numerous applications at once. An attractive clock rounds out the toolbar, rendering the standard Windows Taskbar obsolete. The tiny utility offers a dozen attractive skins. The program also features options for slow computers that degrade animation quality to save resources. The program does lack a system tray, and uninstalling it left a number of files. ObjectDock will appeal to users who are bored with the standard Taskbar.Publisher's description
From Stardock :ObjectDock acts both as a task manager and a program launcher. Users can customize the look of each item on the dock and set various animation options for when the mouse rolls over an item on the dock. The program is very easy to configure. Version 1.2 adds new mouse-over effects and improves the icon zoom effect along with a few new options.

Version: ObjectDock 1.2
Pros: Just what I was looking for. This little program unclutters my desktop,and it also makes it much more attractive and useable.
Cons: Takes a little time to get used to, but well worth the effort. It's looks like I'm using LINUX or a Mac on Windows.
