[AccessD] Ramblings of a nutcase

Alt-tab cycles though the last or all open.  I keep sometimes a dozen things open.  I do 
(occasionally) use alt-tab to switch (cycle)  back and forth between the last two but for all others 
I just hover / select with my mouse.  Why do I want to Alt-tab-tab-tab-tab (oh shit I passed it!!!)  
Hover over the icon in the task bar actually tells me in plain english the title of the open 
content, whether that be a specific web page or a word document.

As for "where I put it", I never found it.  I found places to download "kinda sorta" third party 
equivalents (which I used) which were not as powerful as the original task bar.
