  1. You can stop services with this little command: NET STOP "name of the service"

     

     

    Example:

     

    NET STOP "Themes"

     

     

    To start service, replace STOP with START.

     

    Just type command to Notepad and save file as a .bat file.

  2. Wizmo: http://www.grc.com/wizmo/wizmo.htm

     

    Wizmo is a multipurpose miscellaneous Windows utility that provides an array of single-click functions that are missing from Windows. Triggered by a single mouse click, it can do things like power down your system's displays, activate your screen saver, change or mute the audio volume, restart, reboot, or shutdown your system, and much more.

  3. If it's set to 1 pass, file will be overwritten only 1 time. With 3 passes 3 times and so on... More passes means more security (it's harder/impossible to recover file), but it also means more time with overwrite process. I think 3 passes is just fine.

  4. Dont themes tie up alot of system resources? I turned my themes process off.

    They takes some memory, but if you got a plenty of RAM, it doesn't really matter. If you don't got much RAM, it's better to disable 'Themes' service to free up some recourses.

  5. I prefer Ad-Aware SE, not the new 2007 version. a-squared Free is basicly good, but it founds a lot of false positives. New version also installs Windows service called "a-squared Free Service". I don't think it's vital for using program.

  6. I have used SlanXP Edition 3 Visual Style for a long time now. It's very nice and don't got any problems on it (IMO). Previous versions of SlanXP are also nice. Lassekongo83 makes very nice and clean VS's. I also got some other themes, but i hardly use them, cause SlanXP is so nice. I try from time to time some new styles, but they almost always got some problems on them or they just aren't nice.
