SHELLS IN WIN 2000 AND XP..........This is so important, we had to report it, even though it's not a program. We found out from Shelfront, which, according to Rootrider, "found out .... from LS2K, which found out about this from Desktopian.org, which in turn found out from Ephedrine. Check this out... If you're running Windows NT 5.x (Windows 2000 or XP) run 'gpedit.msc' from the Run dialog (doesn't seem to run from lsxcommand unless you use the complete path). Now navigate to User Configuration > Administrative Templates > System. Check out the 'Custom User Interface.' This setting lets you change your Windows shell. That's right... Microsoft actually provided a [hidden] built-in way to change the shell. I haven't tried it myself yet, but it seems that it works quite well, which is good since configuration of shells in NT5 has been the only real problem (besides those fugly systray buttons) with running shells in NT" (As for XP, recent reports indicate this tweak won't work in XP Home, only Pro.)
