XdN Tweaker is a free tweaking program for Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, and Windows Vista.
Reviewing 0.9.2.0 (Oct 2, 2009)
Contains USEFUL and non obvious tweaks only, unlike other programs with tons of crap.
Kudos to the author for making a meaningful tool.

Gets better and better with each release.
Really great application.
Change Log:
0.9.2.0
October 1st, 2009
- Program now tries to detect system locale.
- Added option to Disable/Enable the Libraries folder under
Windows 7. This is on the Win 7 Interface II page.
- Added third Windows 7 Interface page with two new features:
- New Regional Theme feature. This will enable regional themes
for English versions of Windows 7. I've only tested this on
the EN-US version of Windows 7.
- New Regional Wallpaper feature. This and the above feature
will add new items to the "Personalize" window.
- Hid the old AutoRun disable function and added a newer and
supposedly improved method for preventing programs (such as
malware) from auto-running from external media such as USB drives
or CD/DVD-ROMs. This is for XP/Vista/Windows 7.
- Added link to 3rd party program to let you customize the Windows 7
logon screen background. This on the UAC page under Windows 7.
Reviewing 0.9.1.8 (Aug 10, 2009)
Shows some promise, but a long way to go - so far it contains only a VERY limited number of tweeks. As for the comments about it needing .NET, that's no different from a Java app requiring a Java runtime to be installed. I'm not aware that installing .NET is going to put XP users out at all - other than it taking such a long time to install of course.
Aegis69 seems to have completely misread what this program does. The SafeXP program they recommend is for tweeking security settings - which as far as I can tell this program doesn't touch.

Aegis69,
Are you a dummy? This is a great app and just what I'm looking for.
Running Windows 7 x64 and the major glaring omission is the option to delete the send to, and replace it with move/copy.
That function alone is worth the price, if a meagre donation to the author!
Damn 'tards!
