I did see it mentioned a long while ago in Calkulin's thread(I wish it wasn't locked) but figured I throw it out here again, as it seems to be working extremly well.
Here's the thread at XDA(I'd attach the program but I can't upload from work)...

The only thing I had to do was to throw Arkswitch into the exceptions list so it wouldn't close that program on pressing the X. |
very interesting concept. first thing I noticed though is that you have to make registry changes to configure this. Correct me if I'm wrong. The other thing I noticed is that he started posting how many downloads and how many donations received. Since when do you pay for a beta of a program? Also if you want to get paid, then develop it and put it on handango or skymarket where if it works as advertised (some of them really don't), then you will get paid. I have no problem donating for work (ask some of the members on here), but if it looks like people's only goal is to get paid, then I will stay away from it unless absolutely necessary.
I think you can get a good task switcher/ taskbar (I use iss essentials) that does the same thing without having to make registry edits and won't close out essential processes on accident.
