iColorFolder: Color-code your Windows folders
Awhile back I blogged about changing Windows folder icons to make navigation faster. It's a great productivity booster and I've been doing it ever since, but I'm going to have to give iColorFolder a try. Like the folder icons, iColorFolder makes folder navigation in Windows easier, in this case by letting you assign colors to your folder icons, which is done from the right-click context menu. It also lets you assign custom icons and comes with three different icon skins, but it also works fine if you're already using some icon customization/skin tool. Even better, iColorFolder is open source software and takes up little memory.[Via Lifehacker]

This looks like an attempt at a Windows port of the decade-old Macintosh "label" feature.

the neat feature of this program is that you can shade each folder to your individual taste!

This damn thing didn't bother to post a disclaimer that it would completely remove any folder organization that you have... so if your desktop is arranged... gone.
mother-f annoying.
