1. Start Ease - The Start menu in Windows is a pretty good program launcher but it easily gets cluttered, making it difficult to navigate. On more than one occasion I've found myself going from menu to menu looking for a specific program without success. StartEase is an application launcher that solves this navigation problem by putting just your programs into an A-to-Z menu structure. In addition, you can easily search for programs. As soon as you start typing in the search box you'll see a list of matching programs that gets progressively smaller the more you type, narrowing the results.
