    Launchy! Its name says everything. People love it so much.
    I have been using it for almost one year. (But wakoopa just tracked the time as 6minutes)
    Recently I'm looking for an alternative because I find it more and more annoying that Launchy often misrecognizes my input and hints a certain item with a long filename -- and I've found a good one, FARR. Does everything I expect it to.
    BTW, Launchy hasn't been updated for a considerable period.

    Incredibly handy application. I wonder whenever I will revisit the start menu. No need to even open it anymore! Never seen a crash of the app either. Great software!

    Keyboard launch is far more better than any click launch for me. People will say cool if see you launch an app this way.

    Just what I needed after UPgrading (:p) from vista to xp.

    It's pretty much the only function I miss in xp.
    I love how you barely have to pay any attention to the key combination, and how fast it pops up. Great little tool.

    This in combination with Rocketdock allows me to access hidden files, lost files, and even search the web. THere are many skins and plugins for it too.
