XP bells and whistles - specifically icons and a sidebar...

[Cyberus]

Looking for recommendation for this system I've just installed XP on, its updated to SP2, now I just want some eye candy (and perhaps some usable desktop utils)

Everything must be free though :-)

Thanks in advance

Well in truth, I just want to find some decent icons, as I think the standard XP ones suck.
I always see all these nice icon sets for MorphOS, AmigaOS etc.....

And the sidebar thing, I remember seeing one a couple of years back that had local weather, a nice big analogue clock, with trillian contacts as well....

I'm not into powerhungry eyecandy, that makes the machine crawl (I saw someone's 'puter recently with an animated wallpaper, wtf!)

So rather than ADD eyecandy (with maybe the exception of a sidebar), I want to change the look of XP....
