Finally we did it!

The RC2 release of Vista Start menu Emulator is ready to rock! It'll be published to the large public on next Tuesday. Until then some of you have already got the download link which is only alive until Tuesday.

Here are some screenies:

Of course there could be bugs in the application but we are working on them, and soon the final version will be ready. If you have any suggestion, just mail us onto the address given on the Information panel of VSE RC2.

Improvements:
- The whole code has been re-written to reach higher performance in the application.
- Updated GUI (graphical user interface: new icons, new background, new link panels, shutdown, lock and shutdown menu buttons are also updated, Start orb also replaced)
- working search (start search is now searching in your Start menu\Programs folder as you type, you can even live-search the internet from it)
- faster shortcuts
- redesigned Properties dialog

Thanks to everybody... today i will give it an update - the ablity to choose internet search engine, search with icons (it slows down the app - but works fine afterall), hiding the menu when it's not active - like the real start menu

and has higher performance, working search (in fact it searches only your installed programs, but it works)

i don't want to make it look like in aero, cuz its slower then looks ugly cuz of the limits of vb and on xp you cannot reach aero effects...
