If you're using Windows XP, right click on a blank portion of the desktop > properties > themes tab.  Click the down arrow under Theme: and go online.  Or, you can try these sites:\n\nhttp://www.tucows.com/Windows/DesktopEnhancements\n\nhttp://www.winthemes.com/\n\nhttp://www.download.com/2001-2319-0.html?tag=dir\n\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/downloads/themes.mspx\n\nplrr

you can use Windowblinds, StyleXP ...etc themes softwares. else you may purchase Windows XP Plus! which drills some bucks from ur pocket. (not recommended). My best choice is Windowblinds may found at wincustomize.com, windowblinds.net

http://www.icongalore.com/\n  You can download free icons from this sight. Create a shortcut to the program you want, right click on it, go to properties and change icon. I have XP and can't see any way to move icons from desktop to taskbar. Earlier versions of Windows allowed you to do this.

You've to download startup themes for windows and when you'll go to download themes then remember 1 thing very much download themes from a authorised website because into the themes you can download the boot sector viruses. So my well suggestion is remove the idea of changing startup theme from your mind. And after that if u want change it then go to http://www.microsoft.com/windows if u r using a genuine copy of microsoft windows then u'll get many themes and many fine content for your windows. I hope you'll satisfied with my answer.

I Do not beleive its worth the effort. If you really want to give your system a little up beat, I suggest you download the Official Royale Theme, which Microsoft released for xp go to\n\nhttp://www.softpedia.com/get/Desktop-Enhancements/Themes/Royale-Theme-for-WinXP.shtml\n\nOther functionalities which will be in the Vista include widgets, you can download Yahoo widgets, which is a cool piece of software\nhttp://widgets.yahoo.com/\nlastly for the Vista integrated fast search will be quite fast, you can achieve a performance close to it by download google or yahoo desktop search. \nAll three of these softwares come without spyware and adware and they will give your system a temporary boost while you can continue to wait for Windows Vista's next january release :-)

I get all mine from http://interfacelift.com\nThey do them in all sorts of resolutions too, to match your monitor. Really helps me, as widescreen backgrounds are hard to find
