Any commen on the new prop names (at least in 2k8):
InfoTip REG_SZ prop:System.ItemType;System.Size;System.DateModified
QuickTip REG_SZ prop:System.ItemType;System.Size;System.DateModified

Like, would the old/short names still apply, does this change mean that all Shell properties are now a fair game (list is here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb760781(VS.85).aspx), for all “HKCR\*” values?

Is it possible to completely disable those tooltips in Windows XP’s Explorer? Not only for folders, but for files as well. Every time I move the mouse to over an another file, it shows that d**n yellow tooltip box placed over few next files in list (I’m using detailed list view). It’s very annoying to search for some file, when those tooltips are always popping over, not letting me to see next files.
