Renaming the Recycle Bin
Ever wanted to rename your recycle bin? Who wouldn't?
Well, it's pretty simple, the bare bones of it are just typing in commands to the registry.
Ok, what you do is, copy this information (in bold) to notepad or something similar. (Start-->All Programs-->Accessories-->Notepad).
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}\ShellFolder]
"Attributes"=hex:50,01,00,20
"CallForAttributes"=dword:00000000
Once you have that copied into NotePad, save it as something like "Recyclebin.reg" (without the quotations).
Then, find whereever you saved it, click on it, say yes, and BAM!
Then whenever you want to rename it just right-click and select rename!
That's it!
Now you can freely rename your recycle bin whenever you want!

Command #2: By typing in 'ipconfig' you can view your default gateway ip adress for your router. This is really only useful if you are good with the computer and are trying to fix your internet connection, you can look at what's wrong.
Command #3: By typing in 'format c:' you can delete all the information on your hard drive, if you want to start new or something, but dont do that just to be an idiot.
Command #4: By typing in 'netstat' or 'nbtstat' (both similar) you can view the TCP/IP network of your computer.
Command #5: By typing in 'title whatever' the blue bar at the top where it is command prompt will be replaced with whatever you typed after title.

Now this is specially for the ones who are too lazy to get up even when the trust cellphone dies screeching its lungs out.
Its pretty simple
Creating the playlist
create a playlist of your favourite songs in Winamp, WMP or any other player. Export the playlist as a M3U playlist. M3U is generally accepted by almost every player.
Triggering the alarm
point to start> programs >accessories > system tools >scheduled tasks
Create a new task and choose program as windows media player or winamp (May work with others too but I haven't tried anything else)
Choose "daily", Enter the time and choose "every day" at next screen.
It would now ask for password (leave blank in case you don't have one)
Right click on the newly created task and check the "run only if logged in" check box. In the properties. Append the path to the playlist you created in the "run" text box. "D:\windows media player\wmplayer.exe" K:\Playlists\smoothies.m3u
It should now look like the text inside quotes is my WMP's path. It may vary for you. The text after WMP's path is the one to the playlist.
Click OK and you're done.
Go sleep!
