In depth
A closer look at Windows Sniper
Windows Sniper is a handy system tray-based tool that lets you manipulate any window on your screen. Just drag its crosshairs icon over the window you want to modify and hit the Take Window Out button. Use it to magically hide, close, or resize windows when they appear. Set it to automatically click on buttons and controls. Encapsulate programs so they run in virtual desktop windows. Retrain "always on top" windows so that they behave normally. Windows Sniper can also change a window's properties, reveal passwords, and enable objects and menu items that are unavailable (dimmed). Windows Sniper now also gives you the option of having it target the mouse at newly activated buttons and animates the mouse so you do lose track of what you are doing. If certain windows always give you trouble, take 'em out with Windows Sniper.
