This is for those who like to have lots of icons on desktop, so much that he actually runs out of space. Using this small program called Deskview you can enable list view for your desktop icons enabling you to keep dozens of icons on your desktop without occuping too much space.

If you'd like to have Deskview start with Windows, simply drag a shortcut to the DESKVIEW.EXE file to the Startup folder in your Start Menu.
