I use Free Download Manager (FDM) http://www.freedownloadmanager.org it is pretty nice

Have you ever listened about "prefetching"?

I did, as a matter of fact, I have both Firefox and Opera, on my machine Opera is faster. (the last character is a full stop) If you have any GOOD, TESTED links about how to tweak Firefox to make it faster than Opera, I would like to try them. I have both Firefox and Opera too and on my machine Firefox is faster These are the settings I use... they are TESTED by myself I've not used random values (like many people do), these are ponderated values... and they are still not perfect, however I think they are pretty good. network.http.max-connections = 48 network.http.max-connections-per-server = 16 network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy = 8 network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server = 4 network.http.pipelining = True network.http.pipelining.maxrequests = 8 network.http.proxy.pipelining = True network.http.request.max-start-delay = 0 nglayout.initialpaint.delay = 100 content.notify.backoffcount = 5 content.notify.interval = 100000 content.max.tokenizing.time = 300000 network.dns.disableIPv6 = True ^^

Any benchmarks results backing this? Just try it.

Opera doesn't support XSLT. Firefox with pipelining enabled and some tweaks is also faster than Opera.

I've tried: PC-Cillin Norton AntiVirus McAfee AntiVirus AVG Kaspersky NOD32 Avast! BitDefender ... and the winner is: Kaspersky (2nd: BitDefender)

I've tried: Ad-Aware SpyBot S&D Microsoft Antispyware (ex Giant Antispyware) AVs built-in spyware detection ... and the winner is: Microsoft Antispyware

I've tried: eSafe Desktop ZoneAlarm Kerio Tiny Outpost Pro Look 'n Stop Norton Sygate BlackICE PC Protection ... and the winner is: Outpost Pro (however, BlackICE is good as IDS).

Found! I've seen that from the Windows XP SP1 and the Windows XP SP2 label, only the first letter was different... so I've taken NRMSVOL_EN and tried "to google" *RMSVOL_EN where * were different letters... and I've found ARMSVOL_EN (from the description cache of a tacktech.com page).

Hi, could somebody tell me the "volume label" of "Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition SP1"? The "SP0" label was "NRMS***_EN" (where *** is VOL for the Volume License for example)... so could somebody tell me the SP1 label? Thank you very much P.S. I know I can find this info on www.tacktech.com, but this site is offline from many days.

You have to run the component in another thread... if you run it in the main thread (the same of the GUI) then the GUI remains blocked while executing the ping, because the thread is occupied with the ping request...
