So now people will give them ALL of the private information, not just bits of it? Lovely.

@sean.mcbeth: We should all know the risks when installing software (Because really, plugins should count as that.)

Oh 'eck.

@polobunny: It lets people use a half-decent OS without admitting they were wrong about vista, that's why.

@chaws: I've yet to try and delete it, but an undeletable folder probably means permissions aren't being set right.

@virgilstar: In XP, that was a great method to end up with a slow PC after a few days, and an unstable one after a week. For those using better OS', it's not as neccesary, but there's something nice about the clean-slate feel of seeing an empty desktop. (So close all my programs, I guess!)

@TehBeardMan: Ha, I wish :P

@iSmithx_reloaded: Didn't notice the time - you got lucky! :P

WOO! YEAH!

VOTE: Foobar2000 with the podcatcher plugin.

@polobunny: Disabling it in 7 also hides the search boxes - even on the start menu. A pity, but not a great one.

Screw CPU cycles, it's the disk I/O I disabled it for. Fine most of the time, drives my PC to a damn crawl if I extract large amounts of files from an archive, which I often do. "Everything" does -not- mimic this, and is my search engine of choice.

@Whitson Gordon: :P

@(Starman) #number258: Windows is a lot more document-centric than OS X. Different word documents, for example, are treated differently (At least, were before win7. I think application-centricity is the way of the future, but it hasn't been so far) so there's no global "kill app" shortcut because in theory, every…

@attenbetrate: Eh, any halfway modern GPU can do simple effects like these without even trying, I can't see it having much more of an effect than aero anyway.

That's brilliant. Kudos on getting an "example.org" style domain for it, too :P

That's pretty damn cool, but it'd get really annoying :P

@(Starman) #number258: I don't - ctrl is for per-app shortcuts, IMO. Winkey and Q, or W, would make sense, as alt-F4 is sorta hard to reach. Would also love alt-F2 and 3, for the other two buttons, but I have AHK for that.

@beekerstudios: you are inane and stupid: Could be. I'm certainly not AGAINST the idea of faster PHP - I just don't like the whole idea of the webserver and scripting being locked into each other.

@beekerstudios: you are inane and stupid: Oh, I do a bit of web development myself, but a 50% increase in LH's speed... so? It's not exactly slow now - or at least, the slow bits are the JS, not the PHP. I just don't think there are many scenarios where this is at all important, anybody using PHP for long, complex…
