Virtual desktop manager

I've tried virtual desktop managers in the past, but they've never stuck. However, I'm pretty sure Virtual Dimension is the best one I've ever used for Windows.

I've separated my desktops into "work" and "play". Work is where my text editor, etc., goes, and play is where everything else goes (web browsing, e-mail, etc.). I wonder if I'll actually stick with this. Virtual Dimension seems so far to work really well.

Update (Mar 22, 04): I'm taking back my recommendation for the time being. It doesn't always work correctly.

I tried this as well and it looked great at first, but for some reason it didn't stick. I have yet to find a good virtual desktop manager for Windows. I've been looking for a while, but haven't found anything solid and reliable that works like I expect it to. It's too bad I forgot why I gave up on virtual dimension...
