start will be just before this:
There was an internal error and one of the windows you were using has been closed.';.
now rename start to another five letter word of your choice like Help
save the modified explorer1.exe
open up regedit, you are looking for this key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft?NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
search for the value named Shell and make it equal to explorer1.exe.
restart for changes to take place.
alternatively, close all apps, fire up task manager and end the process explorer.exe, start new traske explorer1.exe and there you go.
if PC dont boot, slave off , navigate to your windows delete explorer1.exe and rename explorer.exe to explorer1.exe, plug back into your PC and there you go back to normal, i assure you it works great!

go to..
start menu%26gt;control Panel%26gt;User Accounts%26gt;click on your account%26gt;change name
that's it!! ^^
For XP, use the control pane %26gt; users
or use this command:
control userpasswords2
select the properties of the account and change the name
not sure this will work for vista though, so give it a try
