Procrastinate At The Office With Confidence!

Feet have been a major factor in the course of human history. If it wasn't for feet, so many great heroes of the past would have had to sit down or risk tipping over. The sound of feet is how you know when someone is approaching your cubicle and it is time to hurry and close the game running on your computer. Too many close calls can lead to unnecessary office stress.

The Stealth Switch is the answer. Quickly install the software and plug the hidden foot switch in (it goes either between the keyboard and your computer, or just into an available USB port) and you are safe. It hides in the shadows and just a light tap of your toes will let it work its magic. Based on your preferences, it can hide the current window, hide all windows, or hide all windows except for specified windows. Not just minimize, mind you, but totally erase from your screen. The Stealth Switch can also mute the sound, hide the taskbar, hide the desktop icons, and password protect the restore function. When the coast is clear, another quick tap and you are ready to frag in peace.

Stealth Switch


Software Requires: Win 98, 98SE, ME, 2000, XP Home/Pro
Includes: Stealth Switch with 6' cable, USB-PS/2 Adapter, Installation CD-ROM, Quick Install Guide
Dimensions: Approx. 3"(W) x 1.5"(H)
Manufacturer's Warranty: 1 year, limited

A much cheaper alternative is using alt + tab.

alt tab doesnt place your windows into stealth mode.. doesnt lock the computer automatically, doesnt bring up other applications in a pre-set manner.

dont know if it justifys spending 25 bucks, can just program a macro-express to do it for you.. but then you can't use your foot
