    Dictionary.com weighs in thusly:

    Usage Note: Momentarily is widely used in speech to mean "in a moment," as in The manager is on another line, but she'll be with you momentarily. This usage rarely leads to ambiguity since the intended sense can usually be determined on the basis of the tense of the verb and the context. Nonetheless, many critics hold that the adverb should be reserved for the senses "for a moment," and the extended usage is unacceptable to 59 percent of the Usage Panel.

    In Windows XP, you can control the default icon spacing (horizontal AND vertical) in Display Properties -> Appearance -> Advanced.

    Under "Item" find "Icon Spacing (Horizontal)" and "Icon Spacing (Vertical)" and select an appropriate "Size" for each. (You may then need to uncheck and recheck "Align to Grid" to see the changes.)

    Good luck.
