Personally... I don't trust Unsanity's "Application Enhancer."
They say it runs as an app and therefore can't adversly affect any other apps or the system, but I say it CAN. Any app that can "modify how your applications work" is dangerous in my book.
I even bought Fruitmenu AND windowshade, but trashed them soon after this "Application Enhancer" came out.
If they want me to use their stuff from now on, they'll have to do a lot more explaining about exactly WHAT their little app can do with my computer and other apps.
It just sounded a bit too Microsoftonian to me... (-;
I use Toast 5.14 in Jag and have had no problems whatsoever.

Personally i think it's marketing BS. But it DOES affect how other applications work. It lets them all have a windowshade feature. That "modifies how applications work". That's not dangerous...
The Application Enhancer doesn't just work with Windowshade. It is the new core for many of their apps, WindowShade X, FruitMenu, Silk and others are all using it, as well as anyone else's apps that want to take control of it.
I just want to know what "certain behaviors" really includes. I don't want some young entrepreneur writing some transparent virus that has access to ALL of my applications.
Call me paranoid, but I'd rather err on the side of safety.
