[...] 1- Fences: do you ever wish that there was some way to organize your icons into general, clearly-labeled areas on yourdesktop that you could move or organize without needing to deal with each icon individually? If so, you’re in luck, as this is exactly what Fences does. You can create floating areas on your desktop, label them, and move icons of any type into them; you can then re-arrange these by moving entire units around, etc. Fences will do two more things for you (1) it will preserve/save icon locations on your screen, and (2) it will allow you to double click an empty area on the desktop to hide all icons.

Works flawlessly on Win 7 64bit and is absolutely great, would not want to miss it and now I really wonder how I ever got along without it.
If I attach a 2nd monitor it appears on that secondary display which is not what I want. So I just drag each fence to my main monitor.

Doesn’t work for me (XP Pro SP3 and NET 2.0) – just says ‘incorrectly configured, try re-installing’

Real nice idea – shame NET 2.0 is involved!

Nothing against this, it sounds like a great idea, but it does remind me a lot of the way Windows used to work way back when (around version 3.0). It was certainly a shock when that interface disappeared with the introduction of Windows 95 and Windows NT version 4.
