I use AHK and Slickrun. Recently I've found that the desktop search application Everything - http://www.voidtools.com/ kills two birds with one stone by being a file finder too.

As I understand the search feature in 7, though, it doesn't allow you to limit the catalog, which Launchy does. For example, I only want it to allow two programs to launch off my USB drive, so I specify the directories to include. I do like the plugins, but I haven't found much need for them yet. I will admit, I haven't really put them through the paces. :) I mostly use XP. As I understand the search feature in 7, though, it doesn’t allow you to limit the catalog, which Launchy does.

Launchy really shows it's power when you use plug ins to expand it basic functionality. Prior to windows 7 I've used FARR (Find and Run Robot). This program is even more powerful than Launchy but learning curve is much steeper to really unleash it's power. Hi LJ,
