Object Dock

[Supah]

ObjectDock™ is a program that enables users to organize their shortcuts, programs and running tasks into an attractive and fun animated Dock. By allowing users to have more control over how they organize their desktop, users can take control of their desktop icons and shortcuts to have them be available when where and how they need them. This, all with the unique style and top-rate performance that ObjectDock is known to deliver!

I use it and it works very well, it allowed me to pretty much lose all those shortcuts and such off my desktop, freeing up a lot of space.

100% Free but you can pay for an upgraded version
