Git-TFS

If there's something that would drive me away from Mercurial and closer towards Git, that would be Git-TFS. So far I'm using a Mercurial/TFS solution, as explained in Using Mercurial with TFS. However, this is not a 100% foolproof solution because (argh!) the solution file contains the "scc*" settings that every now and then get removed from the file when it is not bound to the TFS source control. And, of course, this happens all the time when the code I'm working on is in a cloned Hg repository.
The light seem to come from a project called Git-TFS. The documentation is available at the Wiki page in the project. There is also a newsgroup where questions can be answered.
I'm about to give it a test run but, reading more about it, I seem to have an idea that not using two Hg repositories but just one might work, too. Update to follow soon.

Edit:
Good introductory text is here. My initial opinion is quite good.

Folder2ISO

Folder2ISO does what the name says - it creates an ISO file from a directory. No installation, just download and run. Nice and simple.

Headphones/Speakers Switch

There's a great little program that switches between speakers and headphones (actually, any two sound devices configured in Windows) via simple click or hotkey combination:

SoundSwitch - v2.3, or v3.0dev

Deleting a network user profile on Windows 7

My profile on the current workstation is messed up and I want to recreate it. The account is not a local Windows account but an Active Directory one, making this a bit more difficult.

To start off, I created a new Windows account, giving it Administrator privileges by adding it to the Administrators group. Then, log on with that user and

1. Move my user account files (c:\users\<xy> somewhere else)
2. Remove user SID at 
   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
   The key to remove is the one that points to the above file location for the profile files. 
3. Log off and then on as the above user to recreate the profile.
