ObjectDock is a program that adds a skinnable dock to your Windows desktop.
ObjectDock is a freeware, Mac OS X-style dock for Windows which includes an icon bar, access to files and folders and also provides quick access to useful utilities.
Using this dock for Windows is extremely easy: all you have to do is drag the icons which you would like included onto the ObjectDock icon bar.
Similar to Linux and Mac OS X docks, this one includes smooth transitions when you hover your mouse over the icons it displays. Hovering over icons also reveals a label describing the icon. Items may also be sorted into groups.
The ObjectDock bar can reside on either side of your desktop and automatically hides itself when you're using a full-screen program.
With tons of beautiful themes for ObjectDock available online, you're able to use it to customize your desktop and have your Windows PC looking a little more like a Mac OS X desktop.
On the bad side, the free version does have some limitations which can be annoying.
