Article Body:
How many application windows do you have open during your typical computer work? If
it's just one, you may stop reading at this point. If, however, you do have a
clutter of windows on your computer desktop - go no further, you've just found the
solution!

Windows offers a convenient way to access applications and documents you use often
by placing shortcuts to your computer desktop. These shortcuts are fast to click,
but what if you have a window or two on top of your desktop? Minimizing or moving
around an active window to access your desktop may seem a good solution for a
while, but what if you work with more than just one or two applications? Those
shortcut icons are covered well enough to make you spend a while to minimize or
move away every window that blocks desktop access.

OK, maybe desktop shortcuts are not that great an idea after all. Let's open that
same shortcut from the Windows Start menu! Click Start, select All Programs, and
locate the application you were looking for. Slow, isn't it? I told you.

Wait, here's the Show Desktop button! Let's click it! Great, you can see the
desktop and start your shortcut. Fast? Yeah! But hey, where are your windows? Those
multiple applications you were using for work? They're minimized. Let's try the
Desktop button once again... nope. It minimized the window you've just opened. It
only worked until you actually started the shortcut. To restore your other windows,
see the beginning of this article - minimize, minimize, minimize, and restore,
restore, restore. Slow and boring.

DESKonTOP by http://www.shuric.com/deskontop.shtml finally solves the puzzle. To

launch a shortcut from your desktop simply click DESKonTOP icon near the system
clock, and you'll see a small copy of your desktop with all shortcuts and icons.
You can easily launch a shortcut from there, and that's it! No need to minimize or
move windows around. No need for Start menu exploration. No playing hide-and-seek
with your windows. All it takes is one click on DESKonTOP icon, and one more click
to launch a shortcut!

Once the mouse cursor is over an icon, DESKonTOP will enlarge it to show you the
full-size version of the icon and its text label, allowing you to clearly see and
click the shortcut without training your sniper skills.

Still find it difficult to use the small icons on the reduced copy of your desktop?
No problem! DESKonTOP is readily customizable, allowing you to fine-tune the
appearance of the mini-desktop the way you like it. Larger icons or text labels?
Distinctive background? Small copy of your real desktop? All that and much more is
