Many times it is really very annoying to do cut & paste or copy & paste for your regular folders.For this we need a easy solution as we can directly send our data(movies, songs,or your relevant one ) in our favorite folder as we do by the right click and sending anything directly to Desktop, mail Recipient, My Documents or Pen Drive.
Now the solution for your problem is given below.....

Step 1:Copy the Address of your desired folder from address bar for example if it is C:\FAV copy it(its location on ur hard drive)

Step 2:Goto C:\ drive,goto Tools-->Folder Option-->View-->Hidden Files and Folders-->Hide protected operating system files(Recommended)-->Unhide Hide protected operating system files(Recommended)
#It will give a warning,don't worry!!!

Step 3:Goto C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\SendTo
#In place of Administrator its your User name

Step 4:Right Click --> New--> Shortcut.Paste The name of your desired folder in "Type the location of the Item" Text Field for Example C:\Fav -->Next-->Finish



Step 5:Goto C:\ drive,goto Tools-->Folder Option-->View-->Hidden Files and Folders-->Hide protected operating system files(Recommended)-->Hide Hide protected operating system files(Recommended)
#Step 5 is optional

You may browse ur desired folder also.....

If error reporting in XP is bugging you then turn it off.


When a system error occurs in XP, a little dialog box appears asking if you want to report the error to Microsoft.

To disable error reporting, follow these directions:

1. Right-click My Computer and choose Properties.

2. Click the Advanced tab on your System Properties dialog box.

3. Click the Error Reporting button on the Advanced tab.

4. Place a checkmark next to "Disable error reporting."

5. Leave the other radio button unchecked next to the text labeled, "But notify me when critical errors occur."

6. Click OK.

Hope you loved this useful post!!!!

Open paint.
These eggs require usage of your ctrl key, so if you use ctrl to select a tertiary color, you will most likely want to select it to be the same as your primary color when using these eggs. (Tertiary colors are selected by holding ctrl while picking a color.)
To stamp, select part of the image and hold ctrl while dragging it.
To scuff, select part of the image and hold shift while dragging it.
To use brush pressure, hold ctrl and press - or + on the keypad while drawing, spraying, or using a shape tool.
To draw straight or diagonal lines with the pencil, hold Shift and move the mouse in that direction.

The coolest easter egg i have ever seen is the the one in winamp....
Try it....

1. In WinAmp 5.0, click on Options then on Preferences (or simply press Ctrl-P).
2. Click on the Input option under Plug-ins (these are on the left side of the window).
3. Click on Nullsoft NSV Decoder 1.02
4. Click on about.
5. Double click on the box with the llama picture in it.
You can keep double clicking for different effects...

Just try this....

1. Open a blank Notepad file
2. Write .LOG as the first line of the file, followed by a enter. Save the file and close it.
3. Double-click the file to open it and notice that Notepad appends the current date and time to the end of the file and places the cursor on the line after.
4. Type your notes and then save and close the file.and see the fun.

If you share your Windows XP.Professional system with many other users, you have no doubt experienced how pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del results in the name of the last user logged on to be displayed automatically in the username portion of the logon box. While this is great if you were the last one to log on, it can be frustrating if you weren’t. More often than not, users won’t even bother looking at the username portion of the box and just type their password, resulting in a failed logon.

To address this issue, you may want to consider disabling the automatic display of the last user’s name in the logon dialog box. This is accomplished via a Registry edit. To ensure that the user portion of the logon box remains unpopulated, follow these steps:

1. Click Start > Run. Type Regedit.exe in the Open text box and click OK.
2. Browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
3. Right click in the right-hand side of the screen and select New > DWORD value. Name the value DontDisplayLastUserName.
4. Double-click DontDisplayLastUserName and set its value to 1.


You can subsequently re-enable the setting by changing its value to 0 if need be. Close the Registry Editor and reboot to check your new logon settings.

Do you use the Run feature in Windows XP?For most, this feature remains unused (or rarely used).Why is that?Well, first off nearly all of the Run Commands Correspond to a particular Control Panel Item or a Utility, Tool or Task that can be accessed through Windows.There are, however, tools and utilities that I bet you never knew you had that can be accessed through the Run feature. The main reason most people don't use the Run feature is because they don't know the Commands. So, to solve that problem, decided to put together the following listing, which lists 99 Run Commands and what they correspond too...
