Talisman Desktop
v3.0
Talisman Desktop is a desktop manager and shell-replacement for Windows 9x/ME and NT/2000/XP/Vista. The program lets users design their own desktops and interfaces or choose from hundreds of downloadable themes, which work either atop or as complete replacements for the default Windows shell.
Unlike Windows XP themes, Talisman Desktop lets you completely customize the Windows interface. Its power extends from adding new toolbars to designing a brand-new desktop with any combination of drop-down menus, buttons and panels.
The program allows any number of fixed or free-moving icons, buttons, or other objects that launch programs, Web sites, or internal shell commands; HTML and Flash objects; a customizable taskbar, system tray, calendar, clock; and customizable Start, folder, and task menus, as well as a powerful script language and plugins. Originally created for home users who enjoy outdoing the Mac OS or "Longhorn" designers, Talisman has also been adopted as a front-end interface for public and corporate PCs and kiosks.
Currently, there are over 1000 customizable themes (interfaces) that can be used for personal PCs, standardized corporate desktops, car PCs, Home Theater and MediaCenter interfaces, touch-screen computers, protected interfaces for museums, libraries and other organization.
A handy tool for power users that lets you quickly open desktop items when the desktop itself is covered by other windows.
Innovative Startup Firewall keeps watching your Windows Startup locations. Every time a program inserts itself there, the Startup Firewall notifies you and asks you whether you want to allow the program into your Startup areas or not.
ClickFont allows easy installation of fonts with just two mouse clicks. Integrated into the Windows shell, you can install fonts from anywhere.
TrayAccess is an utility that allows you to put in the system notification area ("system tray") icons for any programs, documents, folders, or system objects (for example, printers).
