    You can edit most settings by opening regedit (start -> regedit),
    and navigating to the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk.
    The "Google/Google Talk" key has several sub-keys that hold different option values:
    Accounts: This one has subkeys for each different account that has logged in on the client. These keys have different values that store the username, password and connection options.
    Autoupdate: Stores the current version information. When the client checks for updates it compares Google's response with these values. If an update is needed, it will download and update the new version.
    Options: This is the most interesting part, where most of the current hacks should be used (keep reading).
    Process: Stores the process ID. Probably used by Google Talk to detect if it's already running or not.
    1.) HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk\Options\show_pin
    If 1, shows a "pin" next to the minimize button that keeps the windows on top of all the other open windows when clicked.
    2.)HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk\Options\view_show_taskbutton
    If 0, hides the taskbar button, and leaves the tray icon only, when the window is shown
    3.)HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk\Options\away_inactive
    If 1, status will be set as Away after the specified number of minutes.
    4.)HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk\Options\away_screensaver
    If 1, status will be set as Away after the specified number of minutes.
    5.)HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk\Options\inactive_minutes

    Control app instalation

    Tired of the kids installing dubious software or running applications you'd rather they left alone? AppLocker is a new Windows 7 feature that ensures users can only run the programs you specify. Don't worry, that's easier to set up than it sounds: you can create a rule to allow everything signed by a particular publisher, so choose Microsoft, say, and that one rule will let you run all signed Microsoft applications. Launch GPEDIT.MSC and go to Computer Configuration > Windows Settings > Security Settings > Application Control Policies > AppLocker to get a feel for how this works.

    Startup repair

    If you've downloaded Windows 7 (and even if you haven't) it's a good idea to create a system repair disc straight away in case you run into problems booting the OS later on. Click Start > Maintenance > Create a System Repair Disc, and let Windows 7 build a bootable emergency disc. If the worst does happen then it could be the only way to get your PC running again.
