Closing programs?

Hey!
I find it annoying that I have to start the switcher bar every time i restart my X51. Is there an easier way to do this? Or maybe I'm missing the obvious way of closing programs?

Is there a way to start magic button every time I reset my axim? Right now, after it boots up, I have to turn it on manually?

VBar 2.2 at FreewarePPC.com is the best. Switcher doesn't always close programs like it says it does. Vbar does. Get it. Use it. Be happy!

I don't know about vbar. I was having problems with it doing funky stuff on m new x51V. It kept freezing the settings menu and showing two "settings" under the running programs. I was doing a soft reset several times a day. I pulled it off and haven't had to soft reset one time and no more funky menus.

Just my experience.

Agree with you SRHookEm. I have problems when I adjust the settings in Dell's WLAN utility, the screen just stops responding when i have either vBar/MB enabled.

I'm still using the built-in switcher, although sometimes it doesnt show any programs running at all (especially when i use PIE).

MB lover here. vbar and MB both freezes the ax when in the WLAN settings. The only workaround I know of is turning it off before going into settings then back on when I'm done.
