DELHOST ============================================================= THE PROBLEM: The Comm\Tcpip\Hosts registry key keeps track of EVERY site you visit. This causes your machine to slow down. WHO NEEDS IT: Anyone who uses their HPC to surf the web. WHAT IT DOES: DelHosts deletes the Comm\Tcpip\Hosts key (and everything under it), clearing up the registry. HOW TO USE IT: Copy the correct EXE to your HPC. Either 1) double-click the icon, or 2) put the exe in your statup folder. BUGS: None -- the program is 2 lines long -- probably the worlds shortest functional windows program. DELRECENT =========================================================== THE PROBLEM: CE keeps track of the recent files you have opened. This causes your machine to slow down. WHAT IT DOES: DelRecent deletes the files in the Recent folder, speeding up the machine. HOW TO USE IT: Copy the correct EXE to your HPC. Either 1) double-click the icon, or 2) put the exe in your statup folder. BUGS: None -- the program is 2 lines long -- probably the worlds shortest functional windows program. DELGARBAGE ========================================================== WHAT IT DOES: DelGarbage empties the Recycling bin. HOW TO USE IT: Copy the correct EXE to your HPC. Either 1) double-click the icon, or 2) put the exe in your statup folder. BUGS: The Recycling Bin icon doesn't change until the screen does a total refresh -- usually after closing a window. DEL_HOSTS_RECENT_GARBAGE ============================================ All of the above in one exe.
