Control panel
Like Start menu tweaks, Control panel tweaks provide the option to show or omit icons. Control panel icons
can be hidden as a precaution to prevent system elements from being tampered with.
3.23 Network
Network tweaks control how your computer behaves when connected to a network. All network setting
changes are implemented once the computer is restarted.
Disable remote administration access to floppy drives (XP, Vista, 7)
When remote administration to floppy drives is allowed, another user sharing your network can access any
data you might have in your floppy drive. Access can be disabled for security reasons.
Disable remote administration access to CDROM drives (XP, Vista, 7)
Like floppy drives, network access to CDROM drives can be disabled for elevated security.
Load balance multiple network adapters (XP, Vista, 7)
If more than one network card is available, this tweak balances the network load equally between multiple
cards. This can boost network availability and resilience.
Enable print server notification messages (XP, Vista, 7)
When enabled, any server notifications will be displayed automatically as a taskbar popup.
Broadcast new shared printer availability over the network (XP, Vista, 7)
Windows is set to automatically search for shared printers connected to your network. If this function is
switched off, shared printers will no longer be broadcast as available for use by other networked computers.
Hide Network File Share passwords with asterisks (XP, Vista, 7)
When enabled, passwords used to access shared files are displayed as asterisks.
Disable printer sharing (XP)
Disabling printer sharing ensures that no one on your network can make use of printers connected to your PC.
Disable file sharing (XP)
With file sharing disabled, other computers connected to your network cannot access any files you might
have in a shared folder.
Hide my computer from Network Browser list (XP, Vista, 7)
This hides your computer from other computers on your network.
Enable remote access to the registry for all user types (XP)
When enabled, this tweak gives registry access to all users connected over the network. Registry access can
be disabled for extra security.
Show network error statistics (XP, Vista, 7)
This adds an extra error statistics tab to the network connection status menu. Network error statistics can be
useful to aid network diagnosis.
