Also, WindowBlinds is required for the blurred transparency, and I suggest you to use WindowFX for animating the windows (costs about the same as WindowBlinds). @AMIR - Completely agree. I've heard that Windows Search 4 (former Windows Desktop Search) is included in Vista, thus making it a real must-have! And the ported sidebar is really way better.

The URL is www.thoosje.com. For additional info, the LClock, Thoosje Sidebar, Vistart and Visual Tooltips are all included in the Vista Transformation Pack. And the Vista Trasformation Pack also suggest having Windowblinds in your system. Sir, for the sidebar, I suggest the Thoosje Sidebar. The URL is http://www.thoosje.com.
