Well, it’s finally out. I’ve had a chance to play around with it for a bit, and honestly—it feels like a step up from the previous version. Here are a few shots I took... http://img377.imageshack.us/img377/8...naslovawr8.jpg http://img140.imageshack.us/img140/8...aslova1le6.jpg 🙂

Honestly, feels like a step up from the last one! It’s taking up maybe an extra 10 MB on my IBM, though.🙂

This one is way better than the last version! If you haven't grabbed it yet, you really should—it works like magic when you run it alongside ConEd!

I'm right there with you, I totally agree.

How should I go about optimizing the velocity on Windows XP? Specifically, which options am I supposed to select? For context, I’m running a cable connection with 512 kbps download and 256 kbps upload speeds. Which of the available settings should I choose if I want my interface visuals to be fully OPTIMIZED?

Are you always this much of a villain, or just every once in a while?🙂

news anchor Asks:
Are you always the villain, or do you have your moments...??🙂

Honestly, just set it to 512 and up—that’s usually your best bet. I personally have a 2 Mbps connection, but I actually hit around 2.5 Mbps quite often, so I just bumped my settings to 3 and up... and everything runs perfectly fine for me...🙂

I understand that I need to input 512 and AP, but there are two additional columns right below those offering more options. I guess I am just a bit confused about what exactly should be entered in those fields.

Just check the velocity here and set it based on that.
BTW, you changed your handle.😁

I installed it and it runs flawlessly. If anyone wants more details on Windows XP, shoot me a DM.

I installed it about a week ago too, and honestly, I’m not seeing much of a difference from the previous one...

but I have noticed that the velocity feels way lower than the last version 🤷

So I just started running this thing to clear out junk files... found 6,117 of them. It’s been sitting there for like 10-15 minutes now and hasn't even budged an inch. The progress bar isn't moving at all. What gives? Is my PC totally frozen or is it always this slow?

Basically means your PC is absolute garbage right now, kind of like a broken-down Chevy in a Detroit junkyard 😉

As far as my own opinion goes, I suppose 2008 was better, and I've stuck with it.

I don't know about the previous version, but this one helped me out quite a bit. I heard Windows XP had better velocity than this new release, though I haven't heard anything regarding other differences.

Is this actually worth installing? Like, seriously?
Give me a straight answer here... you don't have to shout, just be honest.
