I just learned that you can set 3-key combos to open any windows shortcut (ctrl + shift/alt + 'x', 'y', 'Z', etc....) by right-clicking each and going into its properties.
For instance....Crtl + Shft + 'P' for Pokerstars, 'H' for HEM, 'I' for i-tunes, 'M' for My Documents, and so on.
It's only supposed to work for shortcuts located on your desktop but this seems to also include programs w/in the start menu. For such a basic feature it goes a long way in making things more efficient.
If you know of any other tips or software suggestions, please share.

yeah, right-click the shortcut, press 'R' (goto properties), then enter the key combo in the 'Shortcut key' window. I like keeping my desktop as clean as possible so I just created a folder in the start menu called desktop and put everything in it to ensure that the shortcut keys worked w/o the shortcuts being on my desktop. |
