Most Often Used Programs
 

So what are the programs that currently appear in your Windows Xp start menu as being used most often?

Mine are (in order) Internet Explorer, Outlook Express, Calculator, TransMac, Command Prompt, Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, and Graphmatica.

I couldn't tell you for sure (never even use the start menu, and even when I do, I don't know where that is).

But Firefox, AIM, iTunes, and OpenOffice.org (mainly the word processing application thereof).

Firefox, AIM, Outlook, Winamp, text editor of some sort. I can't decide on my favorite yet (notepad++, context, textpad), PowerCalc, AceFTP, Word, Internet Explorer, Google Desktop Search in approximately that order

Notepad -- I really don't that often. Lying start menu.
