CianoDock - Application Launcher

About it

Hi, I'm Luciano Palladino. I created CianoDock becouse I was personally unsatisfied of the Dock's applications around the web. The idea isn't original but I made it in the way that an Application launcher would be for me. I made this software for my personal usage and after decided to share it with everyone. CianoDock it's free with not-for-profit purpose. I don't respond in any manner if you payed for it.

New website! - still developimg the new version on my spare time.

24 Apr 2010

Release 0.3.5.1

- For some of you that found a malfunction using CianoDock becouse of the high protection level of Vista / Win7, now CianoDock for Backgrounds, icons and setting will use the "AppData\Roaming\CianoDock" path in the user folder. In this way you don't have to lower the protection level or installing in another folder that isn't the Program Files.

- More compatibility with Windows7

- Prevent that a link not change position with a group avoiding so to messing up the setting.
In the next version will be possible to excanghe links between groups.
