This small VB 6 utility will allow you to rename the My Computer, My
Documents, My Network Places, Recycle Bin and the default Internet Explorer
on the Desktop. This is a per user setting.

First you have to go into the registry and change this key's attributes to:
70 01 00 20

The key is:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ CLSID\ {645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}

Then right click on the Recycle Bin desktop icon and click Explorer.
With your Recycle Bin highlighted click File and Rename.

Once installed, go to Windows Explorer and scroll down to Recycle Bin, left
click it to highlight, then go to File/Delete or Rename.

Set it at
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\
Explorer\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}
as value of Default

There are other places - this is the one that will 'hold'
