Who uses it? I just installed it and so far it's only slower when starting up and alot more secure and I can scroll through pages faster.

No I'm not saying you don't even have XP because i saw it in the web stats once in the cPanel for D-C in like December and it said you have 98.

I got it. The firewall is really amazing. I haven't had someone crack the firewall since it was installed. ;-)

I've been using it for a week or two.  (downloaded it before it was released)

I haven't noticed any difference.  The speed is the same.  I don't trust software firewalls, so I disabled the firewall.  It's probably a good idea to upgrade to it just to have a lot of bugs and security flaws fixed.

If you havn't updated to SP2, then your probably using SP1, right click on my  computer on your desktop and choose Properties and it will say what Service Pack you use.

I haven't put it on my computer yet.
Mr. Krabs: Do you smell it..that smell...a kind of smelly smell...a smelly smell that smells smelly. Anchovies.
Squidward: What?
Mr. Krabs: ANCHOVIES!
Anchovies: MEEP, MEEP, MEEP.

I probably won't be on here too much being in college and all. I will try to pop on every once in a while though to share my thoughts.

Oh yes. Since viruses and security holes are the way to go!
