    Hi all, I have been trying to search for Windows Vista's Taskbar/Toolbar for the XP... Like the bottom bit of the screen, where the start button. I have already installed the Zune version, giving me a black toolbar but it's got an orange start button which annoys me. Is there any possible way to change that? Here's a little screenshot.

    I want to replace that with a real Vista toolbar. I tried using ViOrb, but it just goes over the Start button and it has no use... Can someone help me? I just want a Vista toolbar. Thanks in advance.

    P.S.If this is inappropriate to the forums, please close this.

    Thanks, but StyleXP doesn't give me the option do get the Vista toolbar... Or maybe I downloaded the wrong one... Any more ideas?

    My advice is to get windowsblinds, it has a vista style desktop and over a 1000 other desktops available. I have it installed on 2 different computers and the program is rock solid and it takes me 10 seconds to change the look of my desktop. The price is only $20.00 which is a bargain for a program I use everyday.

    I tried the free programs that change the look of the desktop, but I was never able to get the look I wanted. Some would only change certain areas, and I sometimes couldn't figure where all the files had te installed.

    If you never used windowsblinds, try the demo. It works very well.

    Thanks, but looks like that I_Am_Alex gave me the correct advice. I have the Windows Vista toolbar and now I'm happy. But thanks for your help too, Jony.
