Default Virtual desktop software?

Hello,

I need a good virtual desktop software, so I can play poker at inappropriate occasions. No fancy functions needed, just a hotkey-function that switches desktops ultra-fast without any lag.

"Powertoys Virtual Desktop for XP" (freely downloadable from Microsoft's webpage), switches slowly and also keeps the PartyPoker Window at the task bar at the bottom when switching desktop (not good).

"Virtual Desktop Toolkit" (freeware) has different task bars for different desktops (good), but the switch is a bit laggy.

Thanks in advance

What you need is one of those anti-boss window hider things used for surfing porn at work.

Just a quick google turns up a few, heres one:

I haven't used them but its so simple to program I don't see how they could suck.

What settings do you use to prevent party poker windows from poping up in another desktop (when posting blinds, accepting a seat, etcetera)?

I have tried all combinations of settings. As it is now this application is, as most others, completely worthless, unless I can stick all partypoker windows to one specific desktop.
