Good product and work around in Tiger

Recommend Product: YES

I've used this little life saver since the beginning and I love that it is free. I have installed it on all of my customer's machines and several now can't live without it. When Tiger came out and I realized that PrefsMenu was somewhat broken, I contact the developer, who quickly responded that a new version was on the way. That was way back in May. Still for a free product, I can't complain too much. PrefsMenu still works in Tiger well enough: selecting an icon still opens the associated preference pane; however, most icons are generic (primarily the Apple icons), and finally the "Sort by…" and "Tiny icons" selections do not seem to work. However, I have pleasantly discovered that logging out and logging back in (restarting works too), will change the option that seemed to not work before. So, select the change from the menu and then log out. Works every time. I sure hope a new version arrives soon.
