First! Congratulations!
Second! Thanks for a great tool. I was about to write similar one myself. It is a shame that since win nt environment variables editing window is so small and not resizeable. PATH var in very short time become very very long. But this is not the only place when dialogs are not resizeable. I wonder if vista inherits these...

PS: Speaking about file selector. Upp must have it's own one because your program can be run on different platforms. Of course there are places to improvement like adding unc paths or left highly customizable pane for shurtcuts.
(BTW: Native win32 fs is the ugliest one I've ever seen. You can't add your path on left pane, and you can't make that large icons smaller... but the worst is the time I have to spend waiting it to open up (and of course there is no option to switch off checking cd-roms labels to speed it up a little bit..))
