You might be already aware of new "Aero Peek" feature in Windows 7, if you are not aware then let us give you a little idea about it.

"Aero Peek" has replaced the old "Show Desktop" feature in Windows 7. It can be found as a small rectangle present at last in Windows 7 taskbar. When you hover the mouse cursor over it, it allows you to peek behind all open windows by hiding all windows and showing only outlines of all windows.

Now you can enjoy the same feature in Windows XP and Vista!

How-to:
QUOTE
Click on the tray icon once: Desktop Preview becomes enabled
Click on twice and it becomes disabled.

Requirements:
QUOTE
- Windows XP/Vista
- .net framework 3.5

Known issue:
QUOTE
- Windows in compatibility mode can't be hidden.
