I have to download a tweak or something from kelly's site? I don't know her

You can open the fix file using notepad and inspect the changes if you
want to see what's happening. I second what others have said about
Kelly's site. In my opinion, it's safe, BUT it is wise of you to be
suspicious. Hang around a while longer and you'll see lots of
references to Kelly's site... and no complaints. This means that her
fixes work, or they totally break your computer and you never get
another one to come back and complain with. :) Just kidding, of
course. ::putting on my flame retardant suit:: :)

Download a program called ERUNT (Emergency Recovery Utility for NT)and
backup your registry before using Kelly's fix, if you really want to
be safe. Others here will verify the reliability of ERUNT. I have it
set to backup my registry on every boot up... and I save several days
of backups, just in case. You could also use set a System Restore
Point in XP, but I've had that utility ? made by Microsoft ? fail to
work. ERUNT has never failed me yet. While ERUNT does not backup the
various other file types that Sys Res does, it DOES backup the entire
set of registry hives.
