Add / Remove Items From New Menu
In Windows, whenever we right-click on Desktop or Explorer, we get “New” menu which contains shortcuts for various known file types. We can easily create new files using this handy “New” menu.
Sometimes we may want to remove a few unwanted items from “New” menu or we may want to add a few necessary items to “New” menu which are not present. So in this tutorial, I’ll tell you how can you add / remove items to / from “New” menu:
A. To Add an Item in “New” menu:
1. Open regedit and expand “HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT” key.
2. Now look for the file type which you want to add in “New” menu, e.g. for adding MP3 file type look for .MP3 key.
3. Right-click on it and select “New -> Key” and give it name “ShellNew“.
4. In right-side pane, right-click and select “New -> String Value“. Give it name “NullFile” and press Enter.
5. Thats it. You’ll immediately get the file type entry in “New” menu.
B. To Remove an Item from “New” menu:
1. Open regedit and expand “HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT” key.
2. Now look for the file type which you want to remove from “New” menu, e.g. for removing MP3 file type look for .MP3 key.
3. Expand it and delete the “ShellNew” key.
4. Thats it. The file type will be removed from “New” menu.

Access Folder From ToolBar
This is an easy way to get to the folders on your system without having to open a Windows Explorer Window every time you want to access files. I find it very useful to have this feature as it allows me to access my Folders and Drives immediately and saves me a lot of time.
1. Right Click an empty spot on your Taskbar (Between your Start Button and your System Tray).
2. Click Toolbars.
3. Click New Toolbar.
4. A Small Window will Open that allows you to pick the folder you wish to make a Toolbar. If you want to access your Desktop Without having to minimize all your windows. Just Pick Desktop. If you want to access ONLY your My Documents Folder, Select that. Any folder will work for this.
5. Click OK.
The New Tool bar will appear at the bottom of your screen next to your System Tray.

Kool Window KeyBoard Tricks
Here are some Windows keyboard tricks you can use to impress your friends! These are nothing but less known features of the Windows XP operating system. To revert back the screen to previous state, repeat the key combination again.
Trick 1 (High Contrast) - Hold Shift, Alt and Print Screen keys together. Click on “OK” when a message appears (this enables high contrast on Windows system). The screen should change to black!
Trick 2 (Magnifier) - Hold Windows key (logo key) and R key together. Type magnify in the run box and then press Enter. This enables magnifier tool and anything near the mouse trail will now appear magnified on top!
Trick 3 (Invert Windows screen) - This is one of the scariest tricks which turns Windows upside down. You can press Ctrl, Alt and then any of the four arrow keys (Ctrl-Alt-Down will rotate screen by 180 degrees)! I have noticed that this doesn’t work on certain Windows XP machines (It is dependent on video driver).

Chatting in invisible mode with Gtalk
We all love chatting. Google Talk gives us freedom to talk anywhere and anytime with our online friends. Message them instantaneously, transfer files, share photos - we love it all.
But what we don't like is getting disturbed by some unwanted friend. We really don't want to chat at that moment but we are forced for maintaining relations.
Can we trick Google Talk? Can we show idle status and be active at the same time?
The best way to keep unwanted friends away is to be invisible or keeping our status idle.Google talk has no provision of invisible status(however you can always choose invisible status in gmail embedded chat)
Idle status in gtalk means you aren't using the feature for last 15 minutes.Being idle is more advantageous than it may seem. You can always make excuses to your colleagues. Didn't you saw the idle status - I was having lunch, I was watching movie, - I was not in my chair, - My brother was playing some stupid game etc.
So far as many people know, you can't make your status idle. Its an automatic update which ticks after 15 minutes of inactivity.
gAlwaysIdleis a small application which gets integrated with gtalk and forcibly sets your status to idle.
gAlwaysIdle is solution for your dilemma. Now chat with whom you initiate and remain idle to all others
