Thanks deli et al.

I had been using VirtuaWin for a few months.  It had its issues (a lot 
of failures to redraw windows), but was better than Dexpot, so I guess I 
should go back to it.

I'm too chicken to install bblean on a client's machine.  Although it 
looks cool, it seems like development stopped four years ago(?).
