I use slickrun on Vista. I have it set up to hide completely, including no tray icon, until I hit win+z. Then a tiny little bubble appears, and I enter one or two letters of the hundred or so ‘magic words’, which are almost all only two letters to start with, hit ‘enter’, and off it goes! Websites, programs, word processor templates of all kinds, locations on my hard drives, everything is within easy reach with this little prog. You can also import and export magic word lists, so no need to ever redo the list if something goes wrong (nothing has gone wrong with slickrun yet). After a year and a half of using it, I feel handicapped when I use computers that don’t have it installed. I recommend highly!

Robert, I took a look at Keybreeze. It almost seems to have too many features to be categorized as an application launcher.
