Just as you read from left to right, the corresponding icons in the Quick Launch tool bar are assigned numbers from [1] on the far left, than [2], etc. If you are using MS Vista, you can quickly select items in your Quick Launch tool bar by selecting the “Win” key + the number [#_] of the associated icon.  So if Internet Explorer is the second icon in your Quick Launch tool bar, press the “Win Key” + “2″ and wah-lah, your browser opens (that is, if you are browser-challenged and NOT using Firefox)!  This works no matter what application has the focus.
