TClock will do that (change the start button)

Haven't messed with it all that much, but it fit "All powerful Button" just fine for me.

BTW, awesome work on that list Paynesmanor, I printed a copy of it, as it is extensive having covered a lot of this thread and contains the URLS.

No, Tclock only mods the clock, not the Start button. To change the Start button text use Custom Start. Here's a current shot of my taskbar:

favorite program - www.Burn4free.com
I have a 10 year old PC. It's been upgraded several times and is running 98se. When my CD bruning program died I downloaded this Burn4Free and it works great. a lifesaver for me.

I didn't read through the 1300 replies to see if this was listed so my favorite freeware program would have to be Paint.NET.

Hey nwfarm,

Have you read any "reviews" on 'Burn4free' ??

Look here:

http://www.download.com/Burn4Free-CD....html?sb=3&v=1

Version: 2.7
Spyware warning
18-Jan-2007 03:42:23 PM
Pros: Didn't get to use program; see warning below.
Cons: After installing Burn4Free I got this message from ZoneAlarmPro:

"This program enables a remote user to control your computer. It runs in the background and opens a back door on your computer. The back door allows an unauthorized remote user to connect to and access your computer, circumventing your computer's security. When you connect to the internet, this program notifies the remote user that your computer is vulnerable. This program may also have built-in tools used to manage your files, run executables on your computer, control your mouse and CD tray, screens, and retrieve passwords, keystroke, and screen shots.


This program enables a remote user access to your entire computer and everything on it.


This program is a major security threat. The program includes server software that allows a remote user to connect to your computer and have complete access and control over it.


It is recommended that you delete this application immediately because it constitutes security and privacy risks, and has no known usefulness."

Might want to check this out ??

hi dr911
I didn't look at the reviews before downloading and using burn4free. My PC is so old I have to use whatever will work on it. I use Ad-Aware SE, Hijack This, Spybot Search and Repair, NortonSystemWorks, + 2 that I paid for (RegSupreme Pro & Advanced System Optimizer) to try and keep my PC clean. So far I haven't had any real problems with spyware. (cross my fingers). I love doing all the sys maintenances. That's part of the fun of using the PC-for me anyway. thanks for your reply to my thread. nwfarm

Requires a tool bar installation. Wonder if it can be removed easily without loss to the programs function ability. Toolbars are Verboten :-)

thanks for the freebies

[nwfarm]

I have the toolbar disabled.

Um...yes it will, I don't just say things to type you know. I wouldn't have put it down if it didn't do that.
