Just released on Feb 14th, 2006 is Beta2 of Microsoft’s Antispyware Program, which was renamed to Windows Defender. My first impressions of Windows Defender is that it is a major improvement and I would definitely encourage everyone running Windows XP to download and install it.

Add Copy to Folder to the Right-Click Menu

Written by windowsxp550

If you are a bit more experienced with Windows XP, you probably use the right click on your mouse quite a bit. Personally, I use the right click all the time (my motto is, when in doubt with what to do, try right clicking). While the standard menu options are really all you need, its always nice to make things a bit easier. This guide will show you how to add the option Copy To Folder… to your right click menu.
