Pros
Adds a very nice effect when you click on your folders, icons, etc. I've had this for a while and haven't gotten remotely tired/annoyed by it yet!
Cons
When I installed it, it didn't seem to want to put a shortcut in startup so that it would start whenever I logged on. (Not to hard to fix--just create a shortcut to UberIcon and put it manually in the startup folder).
Summary
A nice addition for any desktop..

Pros
This program is very lightweight, in that it uses few resources. Due to this, it will run well on slower computers. It's stable, reliable, and ads some really cool customization options to Windows.
Cons
It's still being developed and could use a wider variety of additional plug-ins and effects.
