bush was put there. prolly scripted, which is illegal for that user filming. hopefully microsoft will find him and sack him. and btw. none of the stuff was even illegal. omg the clock and real player thing. you guys know that its not only the programmers look over it. they have ppl who go over the WHOLE system to make sure its perfectly fine and normal.

Actualy you don't need to download anything to change the text of the start menu, Of coure downloading a program that does it for you is easier. But the hard way requires going through the computer's registry. From there you can actually change A LOT of stuff.
Stuff you can change:
Start Menu text
Recycle Bin name
The color of the background (windows log in screen)
High scores for Windows games
Variables for WIndows Games (# of balls in pinball)

THis is all xp stuff btw

the clock thing wasn't very cool, or the song
also, how is typing bush hides the facts, saving then reopening it and showing it to the public illegal? i see it as a programmer joke.

I don't see how the video maker could get in trouble, but the programmer definitely can for promoting something that MS does not promote, aka its bad for the public..

no notepad hacks please, or ill get a mod in here!

Notepad hacks? Notepad is a text editing software. If you mean command prompt scripts, they aren't even hacks. Lel.

Goto Start>Run>CMD>ipconfig /release all
