This free program allows you to change resources in any .exe file such as "Explorer.exe", which includes the [Start] button's Label.

You can visit Download.com and search there for "Resource Hacker". After you download it, follow the guide here: Step 1: A - Run "Resource Hacker" and open the file "%windir%\Explorer.exe". B - You see a Tree of all Resources in this file, expand the "String Table" C - Find the "start" (look for the place 37->1033 on the "String Table") and replace it with your own text.

Then press the [Compile Script] button. D - Save "Explorer.exe" as "MyStart.exe" DONT save it as Explorer.exe, do "save as.." and give it a new name. E - Quit "Resource Hacker". Step 2: A - Click on the [Start] button and choose the "Run..." item from the start menu.

And then press the [Ok] buton to run the "Registry Editor" program. C - Go to: "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Mcft\WindowsNT\Curren tVersion\Winlogon" and find the "Shell" property. D - Replace value of the "Shell" property to "MyStart.exe". E - Quit "Registry Editor". F - Restart your system. Note about Registry Editor: if you did not find the key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Mcft\WindowsNT\Curren tVersion\Winlogon", you can search the Registry for the "Explorer.exe", to do this use the Edit Menu | Find Next (Ctrl+F). Create One-Click Shutdown and Reboot Shortcuts:- First, create a shortcut on your desktop by right-clicking on the desktop, choosing New, and then choosing Shortcut.

The Create Shortcut Wizard appears.

In the box asking for the location of the shortcut, type shutdown.

After you create the shortcut, double-clicking on it will shut down your PC. But you can do much more with a shutdown shortcut than merely shut down your PC.

You can add any combination of several switches to do extra duty, like this: shutdown -r -t 01 -c "Rebooting your PC" Double-clicking on that shortcut will reboot your PC after a one-second delay and display the message "Rebooting your PC." The shutdown command includes a variety of switches you can use to customize it.

Table 1-3 lists all of them and describes their use. I use this technique to create two shutdown shortcuts on my desktop—one for turning off my PC, and one for rebooting.

Here are the ones I use: shutdown -s -t 03 -c "Bye Bye m8!" shutdown -r -t 03 -c "Ill be back m8 wink.gif!" Switch What it does -s Shuts down the PC. -l Logs off the current user. -t nn Indicates the duration of delay, in seconds, before performing the action. -c "messagetext" Displays a message in the System Shutdown window.

A maximum of 127 characters can be used.

The message must be enclosed in quotation marks. -f Forces any running applications to shut down. -r Reboots the PC. Make Mp3 Files Smaller Without Losing Quality :- If you don't already have a copy of MusicMatch Jukebox, download one from musicmatch.com.
