get vista like thumbail previews in XP

Many times when working on a computer
that has been infected with a virus, Trojan, or piece of spyware I find myself Task Manager ca be disabled by Viruses and malware - rdhacker.blogspot.comwith the Task Manager being disabled. Its the first priority of Malware creators to disable access to Task manager so that the user is not able to end the process of the running Malware.Until or unless you are working in an office,there is seldom any restriction placed over Task manager by home users.So, I will be mentioning 5 methods to re-enable task manager and restore it to former glory.
It was only a matter of time when people started cloning Windows Vista features and modding Windows XP with them. Windows Vista do sports some good features my favorite being is the live thumbnail previews that popup when you mouse over the taskbar. And now I can use them in XP as well..period.

I achieved this by using Visual Tooltip, which is a hybrid dock / thumbnail application. With a few tweaks to the settings, we can make it work just like Vista thumbnails.

Here's how it looks like on my desktop… pretty cool huh?!

Visual tooltips allow you to preview your programs like in Vista

To make thumbnails bigger,Increase the size of the sliders, and then uncheck the option for "Size proportional to the target window".

Then Click on the Display tab, and then uncheck the "Show window title"

Congrats..You now have Vista like thumbnail previews :)
