great list of hard to find links!

thanks!

Nice links, thanks mate!

There is so much false information in those tweak guides it's not even funny. Without me explaining them you could even go to the discussion thread of the Ars guide and see many of the tweaks explained.

[fahad]

yeah axcel 216 did put in lotta work. Althought i havent seen him update his XP tweaks for a long time.

You guys heard of Fred Langa? hes got a pretty good twice weekly newsletter.

Seconded. Check out H@tMonsters services guide over at arstechnica. No Guesswork there, and good explanations, so you have a good idea about whether you actually need a service or not

Here's another guide to optimizing Windows XP. Nothing really extreme, aimed at new-comers that don't want to mess their computer too much or that don't know how to secure their Windows XP:

Optimize XP - A Windows XP Optimization Guide
http://mywebpages.comcast.net/SupportCD/OptimizeXP.html

Clean Spyware and Viruses + Optimize Windows XP to improve home, work and gaming performance safely. Windows XP's default configuration is far from optimized. This Free guide will help you improve your overall system performance without having to manually edit the Registry.
