TweakUI for Windows XP

To begin with tweaking, I start with TweakUI. It lets you change some of the hidden settings in Windows XP.

Tweak UI Version 2.10 requires Windows XP Service Pack 1 or above / Windows Server 2003. If you have a Windows XP system without any Service Packs installed, download Version 2.00.

The Windows shell-development team did some extra programming and put together a set of tools called Power Toys. If you’re a power user, go ahead and try them out, but be forewarned that Power Toys aren’t supported by Microsoft because they’re not part of Windows. This group of “toys” lets you adjust your Windows user interface, including menu speed, window animation, and Microsoft Internet Explorer. Version 2.1 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.

Everything is not free

Yes. Everything is not free. But most of them is. Well I’m talking about software. Many good softwares are free. When I started using PC it was loaded with many pirated softwares. I too liked some of them and still do. But I’ve tried to find some good free alternative to the paid softwares.

And my love for free softwares got a peak point when I came to know the importance of Open source softwares. Although they have crappy GUI, but they work with great performance.

If you do have some great freewares to mention then just mail me or reply in this category. I’ll review the software if its good.
