Windows XP surprises

These tricks I have copied from someone's profile of orkut....hadnt heard these earlier so am posting here...

An Indian discovered that nobody can create a FOLDER anywhere on the Computer which can be named as "CON". This is something pretty Cool...and Unbelievable. ... At Microsoft the whole Team, couldn't answer why this happened ! TRY IT NOW ,IT WILL NOT CREATE " CON " FOLDER


1.) Open an empty notepad file
2.) Type "Bush hid the facts" (without the quotes)
3.) Save it as whatever you want.
4.) Close it, and re-open it.

the next one is quite common:

Open Microsoft Word and type
=rand (200, 99)
And then press ENTER Then see the magic...

but i am still puzzled by first two...why the hell this happens donno..

and now a way to get windows XP SP3 for all those who still havent got it....as it is in its beta phase therefore its not available to everyone(you can chk this from microsoft update site)...but hackers all around the world cant allow this unjust behaviour and so they have released a registry entry to get the same..... :)

copy the text below and save it in notepad file and save it as anything.cmd

@echo offreg delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\XPSP3 /f 2> NUL
reg add HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\XPSP3 /v RCPreview /t
REG_SZ /d 1c667073-b87f-4f52-a479-98c85711d869 /f
echo XPSP3 registry key has been set. Please check for updates in Windows Update - Kudos to SR
pause

run this cmd file as administrator and then goto microsoft update site....also make sure that you have the options for testing beta products on in settings of microsoft site... enjoy

  2. i hd noticed 1 more thing:
    u can't create a folder wid no name, meaning if u dnt name d folder, d folder simply refuses 2 get created wid no name, it's named as new folder by default.
    i'm sure der must be sure some way 2 create folders wid no names.
    any clues abt dis?
