It's actually a style plug-in. Create a new display, and click on 'Style: Unformatted' to change the style plug-in.

Thanks, found it!
Unfortunetlly its not helping me create different tabs in the same page for different views.

Nope! What views-tabs does is format the result of a view into a tabset for display. If your view returns 3 results, you'll have a tabset of 3 tabs, each containing one node or set of fields.
Views itself has some tabs support for views that might help.
In this example, I'll create some views that are to become tabs on a user's profile page. The user can be found at /user/
1) Create a page display
2) Setup your display settings (for this example you'd need an argument that gathered the user's uid from the url)
3) Go to the 'Page Settings' area
4) Click on path and provide a URL such as /user/%/posts
5) Click to configure a menu item
6) Choose Menu tab (or default menu tab - can't recall which at the moment!)
7) Provide a name for the tab.
Save the view and now on your user/'s page you should see a tab that when clicked shows you the result of the view.
Tabs created in this way kind of blend in with the local menu task tabs, such as the edit button for the user's profile, but only the user themself or an admin would see those additional tabs.
Another approach is to theme you own tabset into a node template. There's an example of that here:
