Launchy

I found this useful program yesterday called launchy. It indexes your start menu, desktop and whatever else you want (pics/docs) You just press alt+space to bring it up, type a few letters in, eg(fire for firefox). press enter and it launches your program and disappears until you need it again.

This is an awesome app. I have been using this for a long time (in fact I had reviewed it some time back in my blog).
