    I have a few questions,

    1. Are they filled with viruses?

    2. Do they slow down your computer ALOT?

    3. What is the best one to use, trial or not I can buy it.

    No viruses.

    Not that much IMO.

    Doesn't matter too much I THINK, I have the trial personally.

    Anyway, windowsblinds is cool, but it sucks when using photoshop (some tools won't work with windowsblinds on for some wierd ass reason.) and there are bugs in ALLOT of skins (I have seen this some sort of internet bug allot, if you start up your browser it nudges up and down constantly, not all of the skins have these bugs though.

    Any program will slow your PC down, but WB doesn't slow down too much . I'm using 4.5.

    I'm using the full version of windowblinds with transparent windows. It doesn't have any viruses, it also works while using firefox and photoshop(for me anyway) and it doesn't take that much.

    The program is pure genius.

    I've been using it for a little less than two years and I love it. It won't make your computer go slow, unless you have an extremely ancient computer. :P

    I'm currently using WindowBlinds Enhanced 5.0.

    I use this skin: http://www.wincustomize.com/skins.aspx?skinid=6119&libid=1

    You should definitely at least give the program a shot. Just download the trial and see if you like it. Although, some features are disabled in the trial version, which I don't quite understand. Nothing too major, though. :)
