>Goto www.dougknox.com and click on Win XP Fixes and
choose the 'Run As Dialog Opens When Double Clicking a
Shortcut" option, download the zip file and run it. Some
of his files are .vbs files which antivirus software will
flag as a virus file (they are not actual viruses)so you
may want to disable your antivirus software when
executing his files. Doug Knox writes articles on
Microsoft's website and is referred by Microsoft on MS'
website so you can pretty well trust his files.
