DemiLane | Win7shell Plugin For Winamp

I’ve been using Winamp for about 3 years now. And it has been always my favorite among the other media player. Since then, I always set up my Winamp to “minimized to tray” just to not get in the way in the old windows taskbar. Now came Windows 7 with its new and improved Windows Taskbar. I found its convenience and decided to take advantage of its features. But found out that Winamp doesn’t act as it supposed to be when pinned in the taskbar. So here comes Win7Shell to the rescue, found this plugin on the net while searching for an answer!

So what is Win7Shell? It’s a simple plugin for Winamp, that integrates with the new Windows taskbar of Windows 7. I’d say a must have plugin for Winamp. That is, if your in Windows 7.
