    SyncToy 2.0 is a handy little app, I keep backups of my media folders on external drives and just use SyncToy to keep them all up to date.

    I'm liking this for a number of reasons
    1. GPL / Open Source
    2. Can be extracted and made portable
    3. The status bars are pacman :pac:

    If you've got Vista Ultimate then be sure to check out Dreamscene and Stardock Deskscapes. Personally i found it litle buggy, it crashed every so often, but newer releases may be better.

    I use that too. It has built in support for foobar so it works like a charm.
