Task Manager trick

[grafx1]

Did you know if you double click on the graph of the Task Manager in Win XP,

this will remove the title bar, menu bar and tabs bar of the Task Manager.

When copying multiple files of large file size via explorer.exe, I sometimes go to processes tab and right click explorer.exe and set priority to High. It usually seems to help, or it may be just me.

I've done this for years; I did it under windows 2000 as well. It's never crashed the pc I did it on. I've only used for programs like explorer, winrar, tmpg.
