I Finally found a WAY !! I came across "this" website one day and thought to myself, "Hmmm It would be nice to change it's name to Anything but recycle bin", And so like all you poeple out there I also tried all the methods listed on this site, NONE of them worked for me. BUT,,, I did find a way. and Here is how I did it: I have XP configured to look like Classic Windows except visual styles turned on. One day I started windows and found All my settings had returned to those of a newly installed Windows XP. While I was resetting XP back to my liking I right clicked on the Recycle bin to Delete some of the preinstalled "desktop garbage" windows places on the desktop. Thats when I noticed something NEW on the "Right Click menu", the Word RENAME.... it was there plain as day. I selected it and renamed my recycle bin. So here is what I suggest to all you not so enthusiastic Bill (fagget ass) Gates victims out there::: FIRST: Using windows-system tools-files and settings transfer wizzard, preform a backup of just your settings. Save this file onto a disk(removeable media). THEN: Restore your windows XP settings as close to original (XP) as possible. RESTART windows. NEXT: Using Windows system tools-files and settings transfer wizzard Restore you back up settings. THEN: Immediatly BEFORE YOU CLICK ON the START button, RIGHT click on the Recycle bin and RENAME the recycle bin, DONT CLICK ON THE START BUTTON, what ever you do, and Be carefully to select a good name the first time, because once you click on the START button, you cannot rename it, (unless you go through the whole process again). If you have any questions-- write vehicros at war-hammer.net
