Disable User Tracking

The operating system keeps track of the programs run by a user, the paths followed and the documents used. (Did you know that your XP was spying on you!). This tracking is useless to most users-except perhaps for system administrators.
XP's inbuilt user tracking system uses up precious resources. Disable this to free up system resources.
Navigate to:
HCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
Set the DWORLD NoInstrumentation to 1. This will disable most of the user tracking features of XP.
