Switcher bar is acting up in a major way on my X5. I ma looking into getting an alternative app to really close running programs. I am looking at Wisbar, ICBar and Handyswitcher. I am looking for some insight into the pros and cons of each.

I want something simple and easy to use.

I can't compare the three, but I found Icbar to be very easy to use. Best of all it's free.

Thanks, I think Wisbar is free too.

wisbar is free and is much more themeable than ic bar or handy switcher

if you just want a close program not minimise consider magic button

I use wisbar because I can make match my ppc theme and I like the ability to have "quicklaunch icons"

after you've tried them all, you'll probably find the simplicity and functionality of icbar to be the best, i did...

I like PPX for the customization, but definately not the most easy to learn.

Wisbar Advance 2 is probably the best skin/app managing software I haev ever used. Worth the $9.99 (http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com)

I can't speak for ICBar or Handswitcher, but I am a big fan of WisBar Advance. I used version 1.x on my previous PPC and have just purchased 2.x for WM2003 SE. Worth the money, in my opinion.
