If you can’t enable Show Hidden Files from folder options (due to virus attack or for any other reason), you can do it by editing the registry. Just follow the following steps:
Start --> Run , type regedit then press OK. The registry editor will open. Go to the following key:
HKEY_LOLCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\Hidden.
Expand Hidden and select NOHIDDEN. In the right hand pane, see if there is a value called: CheckedValue and delete it. Right click in the right side pane and select New--> DWORD VALUE. Name it exactly as CheckedValue. Double click on it and put 2 as its value data.
Again at the left panel select SHOWALL, look for the key: CheckedValue and delete it also. Like the previous make a new DWORD, Name: CheckedValue . Double click on it and put 1 as its value data.
After doing these steps Open My Computer and from the upper panel and choose Tools>Folder Options. Then put a mark on Show Hidden Files.
Hopefully you will see your Hidden Files.
But you have to remember one thing. If you have virus running in your system then you should remove them first. Otherwise there is every chance that after restarting your system the virus will Hide your Hidden Files again.

Disable Open With Web Service Dialog Box
When we want to open an unknown file type windows xp shows dialog box with two options. One is to search the internet to find the appropriate program and the other is to select the program from a list. But I think most of us don’t want to search the internet if we have the program in our computer rather we like to just select it. Its really annoying to see this type of lame message every time running an unknown file type.
This message can be disabled and the open with dialog box can be shown directly by applying a simple registry tweak.
* Start >Run, type REGEDIT and press Enter
* Navigate to the following branch
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer
Right click in the right side pane and select New--> DWORD VALUE. Name it exactly as InternetOpenWith. Double click on it and put 0 as its value data. This will disable the Open With Web Service Dialog box. You can any time enable the Open With Web service Option by simply changing the value data to 1.
I think Open with Web Service dialog box will not disturb you again.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Explorer

Unlocker : Delete anything.
Unlocker is an application which enables you to delete, move or rename files or folders that are locked by other processes. There is hardly any Computer user who never faced the following annoying message.
Unlocker is the solution.Unlocker is designed to be a very useful Windows Explorer extension allowing users with a simple right-click on a file or folder to easily get rid of error message like this.The application removes file-access restrictions that prevents a user from moving, deleting, or renaming a file.
Unlocker integrates into the Windows right-click menu.
When you click Unlocker, a dialog box is opened that shows you the processes that are currently locking the file and thereby preventing it from being deleted.
You can choose to terminate and unlock the processes, or otherwise delete the file on the next reboot.
In some cases, files cannot be accessed due to Windows file-access bugs, for which Windows informs the user the file is currently in use--even when it's not. Unlocker can effectively bypass this bug's restrictions. It unlocks or disables whatever is preventing the user to access that file.
Unlocker is very much important to remove a virus. You can't delete a virus if it is active. But with unlocker,you can easily terminate the virus process allowing you to Delete the virus file.

Prevent Loosing Your My Document's Files by Changing Location.
My Documents folder is one of the vital folders in Windows XP. Many users store their most important files in this folder. The default location for My Documents Folder is C:\Documents and Settings\User. But because of Windows crash or Installing fresh copy of XP, those files stored in My Documents folder are lost.

Create a folder in the location where you want to store your Documents (except the system drive ) In the Start Menu, Right click on My Documents (This option is not present in classic start menu) and select Properties.
In the Target Tab, click Move and select the folder you created previously. So your My Documents Folder is moved to that location.
Now if Windows crashes, any time you can get your important files from that folder.

Manually remove Funny Ust Scandal Virus
Funny ust scandal is the most common Virus I have ever seen. I found many of my friends'
computers affected by Funny ust scandal virus. This Funny ust scandal is also a really dangerous virus . It creates Funny ust scandal.avi.exe, SMSS.exe and Killer.exe - these three files,
disables folder options, starts new processes, task Manager automatically disappears after few seconds and system becomes deadly slow. If a Funny ust scandal virus is active in your system and your anti virus does not detect or delete it, then you have to manually remove it.
To Remove Funny ust scandal.avi.exe, SMSS.exe and Killer.exe virus, follow the following process
1. Start --> Run and type cmd
2.In the Command Prompt Window Type
taskkill /f /im smss.exe
taskkill /f /im killer.exe
3. The virus placed some files at the root of every drive so you need to clean them.
del /a:h /f c:\autorun.inf
del /a:h /f c:\smss.exe
del /a:h /f c:\funny ust scandal.avi.exe
Repeat the above commands on the Command Prompt Window for all your drives (Just replace C with the drive letter.)
4. Now you need to delete files in windows folder. So type:
del /a:h /f c:\windows\killer.exe
del /a:h /f c:\windows\autorun.inf
del /a:h /f c:\windows\smss.exe
del /a:h /f c:\windows\funny ust scandal.exe
5. Now you need to delete one more file :
del /a:h /f %userprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\lsass.exe
I think you will be able to remove Funny ust scandal , SMSS.exe and Killer.exe virus from your system successfully.
Caution: While the manual process is going on, do not open any My Computer drive.

Change the Default directory for Installing New Application.
In WindowsXP C:\Program Files directory is the default base directory for installing new programs. But you may want a different location into which new programs will be installed. This is very much possible.You can change the default installation directory by editing the Registry .
Go to Start > Run. Then type regedit and press OK. The registry editor window will open. Navigate to the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion
Click on CurrentVersion and in the right pan find the value ProgramFilesDir. This value is selected as C:\Program Files by default.
Double click on ProgramFilesDir and change the value data to the location of any valid drive or folder of your choice.
From now on Windows will use that new location as the default installation directory for new programs.

Remove Unwanted Items From Add or Remove Programs Menu
Sometimes it is seen that due to improper uninstall or for any problem, some uninstalled programs are shown in the Add or Remove Programs list. To remove that program from the list, follow the step:
Go to Start> Run, type regedit. Registry Editor will open:
Navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ SOFTWARE\ Microsoft\ Windows\ CurrentVersion\ Uninstall
Remove any unwanted subkeys under "Uninstall."
You will not find those unwanted programs in the Add or Remove Programs list.
Process Explorer : Find out running processes of your computer.
Process Explorer is an alternative for Windows Task Manager. Actually it is much more efficient than the Task Manager. It displays all the active processes in your system. Process Explorer has some unique options like Tracing the Process handler .dlls which is essential for removing virus.
Process Explorer is a freeware. Its a very small program- only 1.6mb(zip file). Process Explorer need not to be installed,just extract the zip file and thats it.

Open Directly With Notepad.
Many apply a registry tweak to have notepad as an option for unknown file types. We frequently see such files which are actually just text, but named with some odd file-extension. And then, some suspicious files which we want to make sure what the contents are. Well, in such cases where the registry tweak is applied, the downside happens to be that even some known files get associated with notepad - but no, all we want is to be able to open a file with notepad - the association part in such cases is unwanted interference. Also, notepad becomes a permanent fixture on the right-click menu - which is again an annoyance.
So what we do, is to have notepad as an option in the Send-To options, of the right-click menu in explorer. It fulfills the purpose to perfection (atleast, in my case). Here's what we do:
1. right-click desktop, choose "New >> Shortcut"
2. Type the location of the item - "notepad" - (that's all, no need to give path)
3. Next >> type name for shortcut - "Edit with Notepad"(or anything you want)
4. Click finish
5. Now right-click this shortcut on the desktop, and choose properties.
6. Confirm that the "target" and "start in" fields are using variables - "%windir%\system32\notepad.exe" - (absolute paths will be problematic if you use this .LNK on machines other than your own)
7. Now, browse to "%UserProfile%\SendTo" in explorer (which means "C:\Documents and Settings\User_Name\SendTo\" folder)
8. And copy the "Edit with Notepad.lnk" file which you already created, to that folder.
9. Right-click on ANY file-type and you will be offered an option to open with notepad, from the SendTo sub-menu.
So now, you just right-click on an .nfo or .eml or .diz file (which are associated with other programs, and are sometimes just plain-text files), and choose "Send To >> Edit with Notepad" and it will open in notepad!
No more botheration of applying registry tweaks for something as simple as this.

A Little Fun:Create a file of any size.
Its really Funny. You can create a file whose size will be exactly what you want.
You have to Start by converting the desired file size into hexadecimal notation. You can use the Windows Calculator in Scientific mode do to this. Suppose you want a file of 1 million bytes. Enter 1000000 in the calculator and click on the Hex option to convert it (1 million in hex is F4240.) Pad the result with zeroes at the left until the file size reaches eight digits i.e. 000F4240.
Now open a command prompt window. In Windows 95, 98, or Me, you can do this by entering COMMAND in the Start menu's Run dialog; in Windows NT or XP enter CMD instead. Enter the command DEBUG BIGFILE.DAT and ignore the File not found message. Type RCX and press Enter. Debug will display a colon prompt. Enter the last four digits of the hexadecimal number you calculated (4240, in our example). Type RBX and press Enter, then enter the first four digits of the hexadecimal size (000F, in our example). Enter W for Write and Q for Quit.
You've just created a 1-million-byte file using Debug. Of course you can create a file of any desired size using the same technique.
