As for taskbars, they're hit and miss since there are so many out there using different dlls. Your only options here are to a) search this thread to see if others use your preferred taskbar without problems, or b) test 'em out yourself
I've been using PIM.VOL to restore my contacts, as well - but I'm hearing conflicting reports about the favorites tab in Sense. A few hundred pages ago, I was told that your favorites can only be restored by backing up a portion of your registry.

In the past, after restoring my contacts by dragging over PIM.VOL... my favorites are always empty.

Although - I'm not using Resco or Total Commando. I just merely rename the old PIM.VOL to PIM.OLD ... and drag the backed up file over. Could that be a reason why my favorites are not backed up?

This always confused me. With Mike's old ROM, not incorporating Sense 2.5... my favorites were always restored. But not with 2.5...
