It gets the job done
I was looking for a way to keep my yahoo messenger open but not noticeable by my boss. This nifty app got the job done. Of course, you get a pop up browser window linked to the developer's website each time you turn the app on. But the app's free, so I've no complaints.

Not as useful as it could be
Maybe the fact that this program wasn't what I was looking for, make me realise that the way the transparencies where perform let me either see only the background windows or the front ones. I could not find a fine transparency level in order to take out all the posibilities to this program.
I would find far more useful a program that maps a specific color to a completly transparent color; in order to turn, for example, the unused background of a Web Browser into completly or partialy transparent.

Exactly what I was looking for
This program is precisely what I was looking for. Not too over-complicated, just a simple way of making windows transparent if need be. With limited screen space it's v difficult to keep switching back and forth across different windows to compare information in two different applications, and this fulfils the task perfectly. And free!

Good but doesn`t support multiple monitors
I tried it with my dual-monitor setup and when it was running, it stopped me moving windows between the two monitors. as soon as i closed it i could move windows again. Apart from that it worked great and was very easy to install / use. In terms of making windows transparent (which is what it was meant to do!) it worked very well, although for some reason it wouldn't work with a command prompt window.
