Microsoft just release this software that has some cool things from MS and from other companies.  The USB Flash Drive manager is pretty nice and so it Onfolio.

I was looking at this last night.  I am mostly interested in the games, since I like tiny little games like that, but apparently I need an update first.  Hope it's not SP2, because I don't feel like it right now.  I am kinda curious about the Flash Drive Manager.  I can't imagine what it will be or do since I just access it like any other drive, but I will read up on it.

I found no answers in the link. Matter of fact, MS's website told me to fornicate myself because I'm not using IE, and I couldn't download the pack unless I did.

I had the same problem, but since I still have IE on my system I decided to load it and take a look around.  You can download each component individually or as a whole.  Here is what is included:

I switched to Explorer (from Opera) to install it, but when installing, the installer tried to open a new web page. My default browser is Opera, so as soon as it tried to open the page it would get an error telling me to use IE. It wouldn't be hard to set IE to be the default, but it's not worth the effort.

Actually you can if you switch the user agent with one of those extensions that allow you to change it like the Prefbar, and I forget the other one's name.
