Made some changes. Tips are compatible with Windows 7.
Changed recommended Antivirus to Microsoft Security Essentials.

Added link to Black Viper's new Windows 7 Service Configurations.

Wow, didn't realize BV was back. Last I saw of him was (I think) just before Vista came out. As I recall, a couple of online tech sites had reviewed his *tweaks* and found they really didn't offer much in the way of improvements.

Yeah, I don't really bother tweaking any of my services, especially with Windows 7. But I thought I'd just list it on here for those interested.

Google Chrome for me is faster. Depends on your preferences. Google Chrome doesn't take much memory when using it. I still use firefox because of the add ons. You can check the memory use in the task manager and compare it.

P.S. Nice guide jpzsports I've learned new things I didn't know before. Kudos to you.

Thank You

BTW, I'll be doing a revision of this soon with some more changes (mostly related to Windows 7) but in the mean time, basically everything already applies to Windows 7 as well.
