Update your icons without updating your operating system.

XP Icons changes nearly 100 Win98/98SE/Me and Win2k system icons to the new Windows XP Icons. The verdict isn't in yet if XP will be the end all for Windows but the icons are great. Includes options to remove shortcut arrows, 'Shortcut To' prefix and colored block behind the Desktop Icon text. Also allows choice of Desktop Icons text colors.

The new version features new XP Style GUI and 10 additional icon changes. Restarting the computer is no longer necessary. Compatibility added for Win98/98SE/Me/Win2k.

Pros
Absolutely none
Cons
Immediately after downloading and installing, reviewing and uninstalling, I opened Internet Explorer and was infected with Goonsearch despite my McAfee AV program. This is the first time in over 25 years online I have been infected.

It is a Good way of rejuvinating the neglected Windows 98 it offers Windows XP Icons (you know the pretty ones)

If you really are cheap enough to try this software instead of buying Windows XP(I.E. Myself) then don't do it.It Sucked, I even had some errors after that.Someone should lock this software in a cage and throw away the key Don't Download it!!!

Pros
Got a lesson in style appreciation!!
Cons
After downloading and installing to see if I too could have the XP feel on a machine far too old and slow to run XP.(running 98SE) <p>The novelty wore off literally in seconds. The only part of the XP experience you are getting are the icons(it does exactly what it says)and for me now it seems obvious that XP icons were designed to be appealing in the XP package and not designed foe 98.Simply, I prefer my 98 icons in my 98. <p> I uninstalled from the START menu as instructed yet the software kicks in at startup asking if I want to register and then settles in to the task tray until I close it. I have lost various icons including My Computer and Media files which are replaced by the windows "no associated application" icon.RUBBISH

DIDN'T WORK!!

Pros
for a while you might be excited to see windows 98 turn into win xp in a minute. makes pc looks like xp when its not and your brother says "hey where did you get the money for a new windows xp? dont tell me you downloaded one of those warez over the internet again!"
Cons
you'll say : "nah... its not xp. its just icons. i'm about to uninstall it coz it crashed the system, uses quite a memory (10mb or more after installation), and it expires in 21 days (why not 30?) so ill just go to the nearest internet cafe to look at win xp for 21 days."
Summary
Exellent
