Now here is IconTweaker theme for Windows XP which brings Windows 7 Icons to your Windows XP.

IconsTweaker is an icon collection that will enable you to replace Windows XP icons with Windows 7 ones. This icon package has been built with IconTweaker, a freeware application and a good alternative to the more popular IconPackager.

The Pack includes all Windows 7 shell icons for Start Menu, Folders, Network Connections, drives, files and Desktop. It also includes beautiful and transparent Windows 7 cursors.

Microsoft has ended the Windows Xp updation, means no Service pack 4 for Xp (32-bit or 64-bit). Microsoft spokesman said “Microsoft is not currently planning any additional service packs for Windows XP. We can also confirm that no future service packs are planned for Windows Server 2003″. Moving onwards, the Redmond Company will only focus on Vista and Seven with their service pack release.

Windows Vista SP1 (x86 & x64) is now available in 36 languages via the stand-alone installer and Windows Update. If you previously installed Service pack 1 beta, you will have to uninstall it and then install the Service Pack 1 Final. Use the Control Panel applet “Programs and Features” and select “View installed updates” from the top left of the task pane. Under Windows, look for “Service Pack for Windows (KB936330). Microsoft recommends windows update feature over standalone installer.

Windows 7 Service Pack 1 is also expected in end of 2010 or the early 2011. Windows 7 is much better than Vista in all aspects i must say, but still Seven is going through some Hardware and Software Incompatibility Issues. So i suggest to wait for half a year so that all Hardware and Software vendors provide their product versions for Windows 7.

If you are running Windows XP and still hoping for an SP, then by all means, don’t hold your breath. Or, if you were indeed holding your breath, then this is about the right time to exhale and move beyond the aging operating system. Windows 7 is now just a few days short of one month away, seeing how general availability is planned for October 22nd, 2009.
