Directory size
Gosh have you ever looked at properties of a directory and gotten sick of waiting for it to pull up the number/size of files in the directory? I just found a program by Sysinternals that does it in, well seconds. I checked my C: drive, it gave me a result in about 5-10 seconds (thats like 50 gigs of files and directories)

Its commandline interface though :<
