Windows Shortcuts

dcool1 · 15-02-2007, 04:49 PM

Here's one to start --
WindowsKey + d = Show Desktop :p

the other one I use is WindowsKey + L which allows you to switch users

In Windows XP Professional you can go to Start > Run > gpedit.msc This allows you to edit group policies. Although you can change a lot of settings in here, my favorite thing to do is go under User Configuration and then under Windows Settings, in there is an option for Internet Explorer Maintenance. You can change the title of your internet explorer (who it says it was provided by at the top), you can change the toolbar background or even give it a custom logo in the top right (the thing that moves as the page loads)
Theres more in there, but you can explore
