I thought I knew how to do this. I had used a method of doing it in 98 but it doesn't work for xp. Here is what I used that didn't work.
1.Open RegEdit (select Run in the Start menu and enter RegEdit in the text box).
2.Open HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT and locate CLSID (the Class ID option). Scroll down to the
{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E} key and click it.
3.In the right-hand window, double-click (Default), and change the name from Recycle Bin to whatever you prefer.
4.Click OK and close RegEdit.
5.To make the new name take effect, click once anywhere on the desktop, then press the F5 key.
I have seen all the tweaks on this site but can't find a tweak for renaming the recycle bin.
So how is it done?
