UberIcon - Works great with RocketDock

A couple days ago Ryan brought us RocketDock, the best Apple dock emulator I've seen so far. While using it, I noticed that it has a setting in the options that allows you to turn on "UberIcon" support. At first I was confused, as I wasn't sure if that was just a mode in RocketDock, but since it didn't appear to do anything, I went looking on Punk Software's site. And lo and behold, I found that UberIcon is its own standalone utility.

UberIcon immediately won me over due to its complete simplicity - all it does is to zoom an icon quickly and smoothly when you double click it from your desktop or anywhere within Windows Explorer. It might not sound like much, but it definitely adds a bit of spice to an otherwise fairly two-dimensional XP desktop. And of course as soon as I had UberIcon installed, RocketDock respected the setting and started to zoom icons when I launched them in the same way they do on my desktop. Sweet!
