hey thanks for reminding me cool "Everything" app.

What is "Everything"?

"Everything" is an administrative tool that locates files and folders by filename instantly for Windows.
Unlike Windows search "Everything" initially displays every file and folder on your computer (hence the name "Everything").
You type in a search filter to limit what files and folders are displayed.

whats is 1 & 6th softwares?

[Cool Buddy]

Everything search is an instant search program. it indexes your HDD based on the master file table which every NTFS partition has. It takes around half a minute to index a 500GB HDD and gives accurate results based on file names (only). I just can't live without it
Using taskbar shuffle, you can rearrange tabs on the taskbar in windows XP. You don't need this in Win7
