Thumbs up Drag and Drop Vista Taskbar items to re-order them

If anyone out there is anything like me, you like having some of your taskbar items in a certain order. For instance, I like my mail program to be the first item on the taskbar. It annoys the crud out of me if it's not. Found a free little program THAT WORKS IN VISTA that allows you to just shuffle those puppies around on the taskbar - just by dragging and dropping them. Check it out at http://www.freewebs.com/nerdcave/taskbarshuffle.htm

Thanks to the developer for making this nice little app!

I we talking about the quick launch or the gear on the right hand side.? The former you can drag and drop without the use of a separate program.

Not too clear on that. My mail program is in my quick launch bar and, as such, is always up ahead of any newly opened tabs. I guess we all use our computers in different ways, but until this topic came up I have to admit I had not noticed that there was a problem with the centre portion of the taskbar.

crabby needs to know about this app. Remember how concerned he was about ordering--or maybe that was just you. Can the app fix the unequal space between some of the incons? I remember for sure that he was worried about the space betwen those that can be chosen to show via the system and those that were added later.
