Windows Hacks and Solutions
I have some secret Windows tips and tricks here. Many are problems which you may encounter, but for which Windows does not provide a readymade solution.

1. Start -> Run
2. Type regedit
3. Go to the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WinLogon
4. Create a new string value in the right pane named LegalNoticeCaption and enter the value that you want to see in the menubar

Shutting down Windows the fastest way

Internet Explorer
Your browser logo shows something other than the IE logo. Maybe you have installed your ISP software and you have a different logo on the top right. How do you remove it?

1. Close all browser windows
