Does anyone have the names of any programs that take advantage to the people who use multiple monitors on the same pc? i heard about one that would let you have different wallpapers, display the taskbar on both pcs, etc, but i dont know the name of it.

Have a look here - lots of dual monitor advice:

You might find however that moving to xp pro gives you better dual monitor support.
