Hey guys, I am writing a tutorial on Windows XP quite after a long time. This tutorials is as important as simple is it. System Tray, for those who dont know is the bottom right part of your monitor screen where your windows clock and other tiny icons of running applications exist.

When ever I feel some one taller than me I keep wondering if there is any way to grow some taller, if not more then at least 2 inches ?

The answers varies from one cannot gain height after the age 18 (how frightful, did I say I’ll be going to be 19 years old this January), then some one says that you cant gain height after reaching the age of 21 and a few says you can gain a few inches doing some stretching  exercise with no age bar.
