I started using LiteStep because I thought explorer was very inefficient
and I could do it a million times better myself. Plus I was tweaking
every part of windows back in the days so it really made sense to go all
out and complete it with LS :)
Btw, I'm still running LS on all my machines except for my laptop which
runs Win7. Though recently I had a brainfart which gave my a way to get
win7 quicklists working in LS. Once I do (if I ever get myself coding LS
again) that lappy will switch to LS too.
Still running a slightly updated version of this theme:
