You can replace any of the existing tips included with NT by changing that tip's value. Alternatively you can replace all of them by removing all the values under Tips and replacing them with your own. There is a pair of REG_BINARY values which control whether and which tips come next. These values are stored in HKEY_CURRENT_USER, so they can be different for every user.
