XPize 4.2 Beta

Thanks to
Dutchwall for submitting this update to Back page News in our forums.

XPize is a GUI enhancer for Windows XP and above. It replaces most of the non-XP icons, avis and bmps that Microsoft has always overlooked.

The installer simply automates the process of replacing resources in critical system files, making your XP"s look better. It also includes some extras and a reloader, which you can use after visiting Windows Update.

XPize does not contain any spyware or ad-ware of any kind. If you are not satisfied with the results, you can completely uninstall XPize. XPize is compatible with any version (except x64) and any language of Windows XP (Home, Pro & MCE) and 2003.
