Sorry to hear that. I've installed TweakUI on every Windows computer I've been forced to use for at least this decade, and never had a problem I can attribute to it. YMMV I guess... As you say, all it does is tweak the Registry. But that makes me think of the old joke for the invoice for $50,000.50 from the retired employee: $0.50 hammer spot $50,000 Knowing what spot to hammer on If you or anyone would like to continue this thread, I'm happy to, but please move it over to the PANTUG list where it is more on-topic. http://lists.pantug.org/mailman/listinfo/pantuggeneral Thanks, JP ----------------------------|:::======|------------------------------- JP Vossen, CISSP |:::======| http://bashcookbook.com/ My Account, My Opinions |=========| http://www.jpsdomain.org/ ----------------------------|=========|------------------------------- "Microsoft Tax" = the additional hardware & yearly fees for the add-on software required to protect Windows from its own poorly designed and implemented self, while the overhead incidentally flattens Moore's Law. ___________________________________________________________________________ Philadelphia Linux Users Group -- http://www.phillylinux.org Announcements - http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-announce General Discussion -- http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
