I still love my Roget's though, backed up by the hardback Oxford Thesaurus.
Otherwise you'll probably need to use online resources such as Thesaurus.com

An excellent 'middle ground' solution though, using a program actually installed on your computer (rather than an online resource) is the free version of TheSage. It's what I use when compiling crosswords or seeking crossword answers for AB members. I wouldn't be without it!
