XP hides some system software you might want to remove, such as Windows Messenger, but you can tickle it and make it disgorge everything. Using Notepad or Edit, edit the text file /windows/inf/ sysoc.inf, search for the word 'hide' and remove it. You can then go to the Add or Remove Programs in the Control Panel, select Add/Remove Windows Components and there will be your prey, exposed and vulnerable.
Creating Shutdown Icon or One Click Shutdown: Navigate to your desktop.
On the desktop, right-click and go to New,
then to Shortcut (in other words, create a new shortcut).
You should now see a pop-up window instructing you to
enter a command line path.
Use this path in "Type Location of the Item"
SHUTDOWN -S -t 01
If the C: drive is not your local hard drive, then replace "C" with
the correct letter of the hard drive. Click the "Next" button.
Name the shortcut and click the "Finish" button.
Now whenever you want to shut down, just click on this shortcut
and you're done.
Increasing Band-Width By 20%:Microsoft reserves 20% of your available bandwidth for
their own purposes like Windows Updates and interrogating
your PC etc
To get it back:
Click Start then Run and type " gpedit.msc" without quotes.
This opens the group policy editor.
Then go to:Local Computer Policy
then Computer Configuration
then Administrative Templates
then Network
then QOS Packet Scheduler and
then to Limit Reservable Bandwidth.
Double click on Limit Reservable bandwidth.
It will say it is not configured, but the truth is
under the 'Explain' tab I.e."By default, the Packet Scheduler
limits the system to 20 percent of the bandwidth of a
connection, but you can use this setting to override the default."
So the trick is to ENABLE reservable bandwidth, then set it to ZERO.
This will allow the system to reserve nothing, rather than the default 20%.
It works on Win 2000 as well.
