Yellow folder, yellow folder, yellow folder. Dull, dull, dull.

Windows XP doesn’t really make it all that easy to change the color or icon of your explorer folders. With iColorFolder, an open source application, you can change your folders individually via the good ol’ right click contextual menu, and more importantly you can change folders globally. There are some pretty cool designs, too, and there is an extra icon pack you can download.

So, start Vista-izing or MacOS-izing your system right now!

The Daily Download at CNET gives three really cool programs for your taskbar that are totally free. One organizes it, one Mac-ifies it, and one (for you taskbar anarchists) gets rid of it. Unfortunately, I’m conservative when it comes to my taskbar so I can’t side with the taskbar anarchist crowd. However, it might be an interesting thing to try. Go check out Seth Rosenblatt’s picks.
