Icon Tray is a utility which displays the current month, day of the month, and date of the week in the System Tray of the Taskbar. You can select to display all these three items or any combination in any order you wish (ideal for foreign users who use different date format than the U.S standard). This comes in handy when you need to know the date immediately. Sure, you could leave the mouse over the digital clock in the lower right corner of the Icon Tray, and wait a couple of seconds, but I found it's not too convenient. It's nice to see the date/time at a glance any given time.

Tired of staring at an existing desktop wallpaper day after day? Why not having a different wallpaper everyday (how about looking at a different picture from a folder containing your favorite photos everyday.) You can even have Icon Tray switch to a different photo wallpaper as often as every 5 or 10 seconds. It s like having a slide show desktop wallpaper.

Icon Tray also allows you to quickly launch Explorer from any folder of your choice or quickly open a DOS.
