Specific Solitaire Game

I know this is a long-shot, but I figured I'd try. I'm looking for a version of solitaire that I downloaded in July 2007. It's just the basic solitaire game; there aren't any other versions of solitaire included. The thing that set it apart was that it had an "invisible" background--it would open on top of whatever was already open/on the desktop, and all that could be seen behind the cards. Basically, it almost didn't have its own window.

I really liked this version of solitaire and I unfortunately lost it when my computer crashed a few days ago. If this rings any bells, I'd love to be pointed in the right direction. Thanks!

According to Google's generalized descriptions, the likelihoods are Spider Solitaire or MacSolitaire v 2.3.

I don't think it's either of those--Spider Solitaire looks like it contains a bunch of different Solitaire games, and MacSolitaire doesn't have that invisible background thing. Thanks, though!
