This bloody whole forum is about useless... I'll try to post useful information somewhere else.

Supersize window: <CTRL> + Click on title bar

I see no difference between this and just double clicking the title bar. What should I have gotten?

Did you do it from a minimized (not full screened) state? It removes the actual title bar and everything... And I believe it actually only works in IE...

I forget which one it is. I found it on tlab404.com.

Making your IE download more than 2 things at once.

Removes shared documents:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
DWORD NoSharedDocuments = 1

Removes Log Off option in Start Menu:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
DWORD StartMenuLogoff = 1

You don't work on the Base down there in Ingleside, do you? For your sake I sure hope not.

It puts IE in full-screen mode.

Improved Memory Management:

In kilobytes?

SecondLevelDataCache is absolutely useless unless you have a really old CPU (like pre-PentiumII). The HAL will already detect the correct L2 cache size, and you can actually hurt performance by setting this value to a lower value than your actual L2 cache size.

Clearing the page file is also useless for the vast majority of people, and only increases shutdown time. Unless you are really paranoid about someone recovering some fragment of a file from your page file, there is no need for this setting.

Ummm... it would have been nice if your post would have said IE and not just a totally GENERIC "supersize window". As stated, I merely tried it on a window.
