Eject CD

My computer is inside a cabinet, and a few feet from my desk.  In order to eject a CD, I have to either get up, or slide the chair
over to access the computer.  There is however, another way.

If you want to eject a CD, let Windows Explorer eject it for you.
Right-click your CD-ROM drive icon while in Windows Explorer, select Eject, and out pops the CD.

Attack On Address Book

If your PC is hit with one of those PC viruses that goes into your address book and automatically mails itself to everyone on your contact list, this trick will prevent it from sending the mail. 

Create a contact in your email address book with the name 
!0000 and no email address. This will show up as the first 
contact in your address book. Now if a virus attempts to send 
itself to everyone on your contact list, your PC will pop up an error message saying that: "The message could not be sent. 
One or more recipients do not have an email address. Please 
check your Address Book and make sure all the recipients  have a valid email address." You click on OK and the virus message won't be sent.  It may go to your "Drafts" or "Outbox" folder though so check there and if you see it, just delete the it.

Some email programs won't allow you to add a new contact to 
your address book without an email address associated with
the name.  If that's the case, create a partial email address, like !0000@novirus - and don't add the period or com after
novirus.  Your address book should accept the entry but if
you try sending a message it should fail.

MS EXCEL 97/2000: 

You can indent the entry in a selected cell by clicking the Increase Indent button on the Formatting toolbar, but the 
Increase Indent button works a bit differently in Excel than it does in Word. Each time you click Increase Indent, Excel 
indents the cell entry to the right by only one character width of the standard font.
