ObjectDock is a freeware program that does both program launching and task management with style. When the user"s mouse is over a dock item, it can zoom up in size.
Stardock also provides ObjectDock Plus which adds support for tabbed docks, system tray displays, multiple docks, multiple monitor support, fly-out menus, and much more.
ObjectDock 1.05 addresses a host of issues reported by users from previous versions and tweaks performance and memory usage further.
