I can run the command from the shell and it works fine, so the argument is formatted correctly. Do you know a way to make the cmd window popped up by Runner pause so I can see what the error was?

To do this, type <em>cd ..</em> until you are at the root C:\ folder. Now type <em>cd windows</em> and then <em>cd system32</em>. Now try installing it with the above instruction. If that doesn't work, try typing <em>blat.exe</em> instead of just <em>blat</em> For the name in Runner, you can use anything you want. I personally use p, so all have to do is hit ALT-Space to bring up Launchy and then type p, hit tab, and whatever I want to say. You can use <em>ping</em>, <em>u</em> or <em>update</em>; anything you want, really. Pittsy: When installing blat, make sure you’re in the C:\Windows\System32 directory in the cmd window.

I cant seem to get blat installed. I've copied the .exe to my \windows\system32 folder but when I do the blat -instal... bit i get "blat is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file" Also, on the Launchy side of things what do you name the runner? any help you can give me on this would be great. I had been looking for an answer similar to the twitter updates but this looks like a similar idea.
