Enable NetMeeting on Windows XP

Windows XP has a cool little program called “NetMeeting”. This program was meant for online meetings, messaging and you can even do remote assistance with this software. It is a nice program, but the hell is it hidden on Windows XP? It doesnt really show up anywhere unless you know the secret command.

If you want to use NetMeeting, this is the only way to do it.

Install NetMeeting

1) Click start->run
2) Type in conf.exe
3) The NetMeeting installer appears. Just follow the prompts

It is very simple to install and its a good little program. I have used it alot in the past, mainly for remote desktop type stuff.

Fix Missing Desktop Items

If your desktop items are missing, don’t panic. It is most likely just a properties setting that is responsible. If you try this and find it is not the case, then you might be infected with adware/spyware/virus.

To recover your desktop items:

  • Right-click on your desktop
  • Select “Arrange Icons By”
  • Make sure “Show Desktop Items” is ticked

You can also try a few other desktop options from the same menu. To remove all desktop items, just follow the same process as above.

Internet Explorer 7 Tweaks – Zooming on Text

Internet Explorer 7 has a few tweaks, and some of them are actually quite useful. Here is a little tweak that will enable you to zoom in on text. If you have bad vision (like me), then this will be really handy.

To zoom in on text, hold down “CTRL” and scroll the mouse button forwards or backwards. Obviously forwards zooms in and backwards zooms out.

You can also do the same thing with the keyboard. Just hold down “CTRL” and press the + or – button the keyboard.

Now you can finally read all of those annoying webpages with tiny text.
