XP Pro trimmed back and Mandrake Linux 9. Jam,I prefer XP Pro for the few extra business type extras .... and I removed the Home Video and that sort of garbage. It does have (IMHO!) a little better security built in as well. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/sb.gif" border=0 ALIGN="absmiddle" ALT="Power

Reply to Registry Cleanup Question in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Call me a simple suck (Thank you but it's a regular thing!) but I find TweakXP Pro a good solution. Simple word of caution with whatever you use, make registry backup and only delete it when you're happy with the 'fix'. So far TXPP has never failed me. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/sb.gif" border=0 ALIG

Exclude Expolder from the WB program settings panel and use Weblinds if you must skin the damn thing. Better still, use Opera of Phoenix! <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/sb.gif" border=0 ALIGN="absmiddle" ALT="Po

Rather apt to see "The Charge of The Light Brigade" following hard on the heels of a few remarks about Test Cricket! We still haven't forgotten the "bodyline" series either! What a poor show!

After the performance of the 'English Cricket Team' I don't think there's much cause for optimism Ashu. 'The boy stood on the burning deck, his pocket full of crackers' ......... <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/sb.gif"

The forward-backward compatability will be welcomed by many. I like the move toward setting colours of one's choice in different parts of a skin. And the first quarter of '03 is fine if it is less buggy "than a rushed out before Christmas" version. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/sb.gif" border=0 ALIGN="

No idea why(anal retentive?????)but I've taken to deleting the contents of the folder on a regular basis to keep things rolling along smoothly. Bit like defragging once a week. Must work as I've never had a problem. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/sb.gif" border=0 ALIGN="absmiddle" ALT="Powered b

If you use a downloader like Flashget/JetCar the unfinished file extension is 'jc'. Downloads via the WincustoBrowser are (usually) no trouble and you have the added bonus of being able to install most of them straight from the browser. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/sb.gif" border=0 ALIGN="absmiddle"

Don't knock the rainy weather Team, we could sure use it here. We're the driest continent and are going through a really bad drought, even the Far North is feeling it. The poor sods in the rural areas are doing it hard and the past week has seen (another) round of severe bush fires around Sydney. > (aka Austra
