Press Release Summary = True Launch Bar is an ultimate experience of a manageable
file system. It gets the best of MS Windows OS and streamlines it for greater
comfort of use. Its unique system of switching toolbars and expandable menus gives
instant access to files, applications, and settings from the taskbar. In addition,
overlay images and skins give system polish and slick looks.

Press Release Body = Tordex announces today the release of the forth major version
of True Launch Bar, a shortcut manager and system enhancement tool. The program is
known as much for its close integration with Windows OS as for skins and extensions
that change the looks of the taskbar. The new version improves the hallmark system
of switching toolbars and expands the range of customizable program features. Users
are now able to change not only the appearance of menus and items, but also the
default commands ascribed to buttons. The latest update also offers support to
Windows Vista. On the whole, the update makes True Launch Bar more universally
customizable and visually diverse.

True Launch Bar draws on the strengths of MS Windows, making a better use of its
controls and technologies. It strikes the delicate balance between comfort and
integrity of the system. It allows switching toolbars automatically with the change
of an active application. For example, if you use extra resources while working with
MS Office applications, you can create a special toolbar with shortcuts to all the
resources. The shortcuts will appear in the taskbar every time MS Word or Excel is
launched. You can also group shortcuts into menus that expand and collapse at a
click or float on top of other windows. The use of Drag-n-Drop helps quickly fill
the menus with shortcuts for files and applications, system settings and controls.
True Launch Bar helps you harness the system and stay in control.

Here are testimonials of users appreciating the comfort of True Launch Bar:

"To grasp the real value of True Launch Bar, try working with it for some time. Then
any system without it turns into a raging nightmare." Nick Harley, Canada.

"I want to tell you guys, your app is a killer!! I love it. Something that my
company (MS) forgot to include in XP :) Worth every penny!!! Keep up the good
work!"

".you can modify the icons-menu to appear only text-based and re-arrange the
structure of the menus to seems like gnome one. Good work!" Hack Lover, Italy

Not only does True Launch Bar give comfort of use, but also adds polish to your
system. With its help you can dress the taskbar with overlay images and skins. You
can customise its colour scheme; add gradients and transparency effects. You can tap
into a fathomless source of designs and styles. Its plug-ins will equip your taskbar
with a news reader and the weather forecast. You will be able to monitor resources
and network activities, access the address book and control media players. It is one
nifty tool that works wonders with your desktop, putting things in order, and adding
polish to the system looks.
