I've been scrolling true this topic but there was no mentioning  of Hidden Menu.
You can download it here: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/hiddenmenu.html
This is freeware, only 373kb and very convenient to use. So I can recommend it for starting everything you wish, whit only 1 mouse click.

I tend not to use the mouse to launch things, since I find the keyboard to be so much quicker.  I've tried almost every launcher program out there for almost 2-3 months apiece (Launchy, Slickrun, FARR, etc.) and have found Keybreeze (www.keybreeze.com) to be about the best there is.  I haven't found anything that does as complete of an indexing of programs and as well provides an easy way to add custom commands.

Armando:
I'd never trade my farr for keybreeze.  ;)

Grorgy:
Hmmm an awful lot of them aren't there  ;D  I'm using FARR, I haven't discovered many of its uses yet, its mainly a program launcher for me still, and I dont understand these aliases or regex and all the techie mumbo jumbo  :-[ , looking forward to the packs when that is all set up.
