For Windows XP (at least in Home Edition), open Registry. Then goto: My Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}. In the right pane, right-click on "Default" and then click "Modify". You can then change "Recycle Bin" to whatever name you desire. Click "OK", then "X" out of the Registry. Finally, reboot your computer--and, hopefully, you'll be a happy camper.
