There are many different kinds of tweaks. Speed tweak, as you mentioned registry tweaks, or even Menu Bar tweaks. It all depends on what you want to tweak. Tweaking your registry should only be done if you know what your are doing. You can mess it up totally. Sometimes so bad you can not get back on the Internet. Always make a system restore point before trying any tweak. Start>all programs>accessories>system tools>System Restore.
Having said that there are 2 forums that come to mind that will be able to help you with all of those tweaks.

The registry is where your computer stores information about the configuration of your system and your programs so that the operating system (Windows) can use it. The registry is structured as keys and each key relates to a program or setting on your system. Windows reads the keys and uses the information to launch and run programs.
You should not tweak your registry unless you KNOW what you are doing. Delete one wrong key and you'll wind up with a non-working computer.
