Explorer, the default shell of Windows, automagically provides appbar and system tray services for the OS, the program taskbar.exe here is a quasi clone of that functionality.  This is obviously not documented in the OS, and as such the program has no guarantees of working under future versions of Windows, or even current versions of the OS since information is sketchy at best.  I am confident that the systray code is working under both win95 and win98, appbars are working under win95 but not win98.

To use:

Copy taskbar.exe to the Modules dir of Desktop Manager and using the prefs make taskbar.exe a priority module. When DM next reboots as your shell, you will see a taskbar on the bottom of the screen with all your favourite systray icons present.
