Add SkyDrive To Your Windows Explorer with SkyDrive Explorer
Windows Live SkyDrive is part of Microsoft’s Windows Live online services. SkyDrive is a file storage and sharing service that allows users to upload files to the computing cloud, then access them from a web browser.
To access it however, you have to use your browser. SkyDrive Explorer however lets you access it easily. It is a free, easy-to-use, but very powerful extension for Windows Explorer.
With SkyDrive Explorer you can make any every-day operations with your documents from Microsoft Live SkyDrive™ service using Windows Explorer, as if they were on your computer.
Moreover you don’t need to install and configure any additional programs or ActiveX components. SkyDrive Explorer will organize the interaction with the online storage itself.
SkyDrive Explorer works both in 32- and 64-bit Microsoft® Windows OS. Minimal required OS is Windows XP, and SkyDrive Explorer will successfully work in Windows Vista, Windows Server 2003 and 2008, and Windows 7.

Bit of a half-assed implementation. While you can access your skydrive without having to open a web browser, the convenience pretty much stops there. You can’t map an actual drive to your skydrive, so you’re still limited to nothing more than manually dragging and dropping files, the same as with the web interface.
I thought this was a new Windows Live feature, or add-in. Since it is a third party application and the site looks a little suspect, I will pass on it for security reasons.
