Default Guild Wars window mode without borders?

Hey, I play eve-online a lot and I use an application made especially for Eve and I wondered if theres something like that for GW.

The application starts eve in window mode, removes the borders and maximizes the window so that it looks 100% like fullscreen although it is window mode.

Anyone know how to do this or know of an application that does it for you?

(This is handy if you use more than 1 monitor and want to use the other monitor without having guild wars minimize all the time).

There's nothing GW-specific that does that. Maybe those people that make WindowBlinds have something generic that performs this task?

I'm also looking for the same thing. I have 2 monitors and 1 I use for guild wars and the other for guild wiki or anthing else music, and etc... Its a pain in the neck to keep minimizing to move the curser in the second monitor.

while I do not know 100% that there is a program that will do this. The places I would start are:

www.stardock.com

www.wincustomize.com

They have MANY skinning programs. I can tell you that I use alot of these programs. 99% work on xp, vista you need to check to make sure. Membership is free and most programs are limited/trials also free. You may need to buy a full version to "unlock the functionality". The downside to some of these apps is: can be intrusive (icon manager is a pain to get rid of) and they do use system resources. If you have 1gig or less gigs on xp and 3 gigs or less on vista (this is the RAM/memory), I do not suggest going this route.
