The Start Button Editor

 

Anyone who's sick of the button with that flying Windows logo and the boring "Start", can download Hook99. This editor re-embellishes the button with your own icon, BMP file or a text message.

After installing, you have to make sure the app is reflected in the Start menu folder.

Hook99 can also serve as a prank, the text tags of the icons on the Desktop can be made transparent, assigned new targets, creating an impression that the Windows have cracked :-)
The download and screenshot are in the URL below.

  A registry hack will do it as well  
 
I think a registry hack will do the same thing. At least for changing the text from START to something else.

  Not new but informative  
 
I've seen this before on a TV show a few weeks ago but I like seeing this article because the link makes it so easy to do. I think this story is enjoyable even though its dated. Someone should have reported it earlier!

  Hmm..  
 
This is very old, and is this supposed to be some kind of advertisement or something? It's not really even news...
