That's not normal for that to happen. Do you still have to do that on the newest version 1.0.1? (BTW, I checked the bug fixes for the new version and just as I had suspected, NONE of the really bothersome bugs were fixed!) -Clint
God Bless Clint Hamilton, Owner http://OrpheusComputing.com ) http://ComputersCustomBuilt.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Keith Thompson" I have found that on occasion, the system seems to be much slower than usual, with all spyware removed (trojans checked, etc), but found that rebooting 2 or even 3 times seems to reset all the links, registry and all so that it returns to standard speed. I have advised a few others to do the same and they seem to feel that it works for them as well.
