   | Senior Member with 629 posts. | | Join Date: Jan 2004 Location: Va | | TweakUI Running W95,7yr old Gateway 2000, 200mhz,64MB ram, and always had some minor problems.When I would close a site from the internet it would take about 30 seconds to close with my HD just clicking away. I tried many things HJT,IE repair and scans ,defrag etc,also clean up. Nothing seemed to help. I had downloaded MS tweakui sometime ago but never used it. I just used it, esp the repair system files and bingo! things have run great for a few days now. When I close a site bam! it closes. Also don't get urlmon.dll illegal ops as I did before. Hope this was the cure and that I havn't spoke too soon! I hope, I hope!

I downloaded it.
Thanks.
And installed it as is suggested. It requires a restart (on WinMe at least). Since it finishes up in Control Panel I sent a shortcut to Desktop for convenience, And also moved (cut and pasted) the Desktop folder to a programs folder.
It looks really interesting.
It replaced all my Desktop icon shortcut arrows so I promptly used RegSeeker to remove them! No problem.
The numerous options in tweakui tell me just how lacking I am in compuspeak! However on a dull day...

Tweakall3 is free for home users. Read about it at: http://www.codeforge.co.uk/products.php
For Win 95 thru XP Nome and Pro. I believe I read about it in PC Magazine. Its been in my Program Files for a year or more. I think I used it at first but not for a while. Supposedly speeds up your system. It will also free up some memory-various setting for that. Has an add/remove section, and a section on the words "Shortcut to" for your desktop icons as well as the shortcut arrows themselves. I think it was also reviewed on TheScreenSavers. Anyway, my memory is that it was highly praised. I got it. Haven't used it much. Don't know why. Perhaps cautious about messing with settings about which I know too little to be sure it's an OK thing to do.
Sorry Hewee. I was responding to a PM about this thread. Hadn't read your post 'til after I had posted. Once again you nailed it. Might want to start a new thread on TweakAll3 and see what a broader experience with it is like. (She,not he.)
