Direct Folders is a Windows utility that makes it easy to find recent and frequently used folders in the save/open dialog. For example, if you regularly download files from the web and save them to a handful of folders (say, music, temp, installer files, images) you can create shortcuts using Direct Folders. Then when you click "save link as" in your web browser, just double click on the white space in the save as dialog to bring up a list of shortcuts. You can also find recently used folders by clicking the Recent button.

The application has a few other useful features as well. You can automatically resize all open/save dialog boxes to a predetermined size, set the default view (thumbnails, list, and so on), or change the sorting method. Direct Folders is free for home use, or you can pick up the pro version for €14.95 or about $24. The pro version adds an info panel, checks your hard drive free space, and lets you set default folders for each application.
