App persistently invokes Mac OS X internet download warning at system startup. Attempts to disable the warning via Terminal have not worked. Mac OSX 10.7.2 on a 2011 iMac. Any advice welcome.

I use this utility dozens and dozens of times a day, and it's been rock-solid since the Snow Leopard update.

I find the especially useful in terms of customizing what Services I want right at hand in pop-up menus and what order and where they show up, and of course, you can launch docs/apps, and a dozen other useful things. Now, with the addition of the ability to copy files/folders, it's even more useful.

I think Artman makes top-notch, well-supported software. (I also own and use Artman's Jedit X, and it's my workhorse text editor, and have had great support with it.)

I highly recommend this utility, and if you're a Services fanatic like I am, you'll find it indispensable.

this app is perfect.. better than all suggested, works fine on SL you have to choose from the other two options hotkey or... i forget anyway, can be used well in SL. Folderglance is overpriced.

FolderGlance looks to be the first one out with a Snow Leopard solution. He also made the product a commercial app. Can't say as I blame him because he has a good product and it is even better with SL.

Comparing this to FruitMenu is simply inaccurate, a mistake.

Folder Glance seems to have folded.

Shoulda' taken a 10 bill and lit it on fire! lol!

openmenu x is much better than fruitmenu, this is native... fruitmenu is haxie that barely does it's basics. Oh yeah, it's constantly developed, I guarantee if openmenu x and fruitmenu don't work, openmenu x would be the first fixed and probably within the first week of the final snow leopard release.

Just not having good luck with this at all.
Don't want to "review" this because I may be missing something and I don't want to trash it, yet, but when I invoke the contextual menu from the finder, and go to launch something, it ALWAYS launches the wrong app, ALWAYS.
AND, I want the contextual menus from the finder, I don't want to have to scroll down to "more".
Big waste of time as far as I can see... I bought this thing to save me time...not a work-around for me...a real time waster.

WHERES FRUITMENU?!?!!!

please Unsanity! UPDATE FOR LEOPARD!!!

This is indeed the best OS-X version of Finderpop I've come across - it's great and I'll gladly plonk out my $10.

For all of you saying that other apps do the same thing easier or cheaper - THEY DON'T. XMenu is fundamentally different in concept (being tied to the , FruitMenu causes conflicts all over the place with other software, and neither Launch Item nor Quick Access have the ability to work as a Contextual menu droplet for applescripts.

what conflicts are you talking about with Fruitmenu? i've got just about everything under the sun on my Mini with Fruitmenu installed. no problems here. maybe you need to update your other software.
