Ok, try using this tip on any other OS wise ass!

And faking an email means you can write an email with fake content from a fake person.
So you mean changing the email address + realname in Outlook doesnt work anymore? :(

Windows + E : open My Computer
Windows + M : minimize all windows

There're tons more handy shortcuts I can't remember...
Windows + L ftw.
actually an internet explorer trick...

- point mouse on toolbar button (back, forward,start, refresh..)
- press right mousebutton and keep it pressed
- press left mousebutton and keep it pressed
- while holding both buttons pressed, move the mouse pointer to the main window
- release both buttons

result --> internet explorer window is locked until focus is switched...

raina : this "nonsense" is pressing the Windows key and another key at the same time
Windows + R then 'cmd' then blame microsoft for a lame DOS-based shell :D

I used to compile a Windows tips column for a computer magazine for a few years. I have hundreds of them stored in a text file, but it's all in Finnish. Many of them are cool and poorly known, but pretty much useless (eg. did you know you can actually select three colors, not just two, at once in MSPaint? Almost better than Photoshop!)

orb : Window + U should start Microsoft Narrator (the :D afterwards was a badly judged smiley)
alt + enter in IE adds www.***.com
CTRL+C copys the text in a MessageBox(HWND, LPSTR, LPSTR, int);

Win + U seems to start the Magnifier + Virtual keyboard here
