It is so aesthetically pleasing, it caught my eye almost instantly, i sat and toyed with it and yes, it was smoother than XP or W2k. My issue is not in line with the AV. It started with a few glitches with the Video Card albeit it's an on board VGA. Whilst typing using MS Word i heard a rather chilling scream from the room below with my name repeated frantically. For a moment there i thought someone had broken in to the house only to get to the study and find my mother worried looking at a rapidly flickering screen. Kind of unnecessary and it didn't happen in earlier versions. This was an updated VGA driver from MS on the auto update function, granted things like this shouldn't bother many people, it's a "usual" thing. However, why put up with it? It's not happened to me when i use Suse, or RH, or Fedora. Why Windows? why does something happen to the product from a Fortune 500 Company? The OS is used on almost 80% of desktops around the world. @Ledermann ReactOS seems like something i'd try. Moving my parents ( 60+ in age ) to a different system from Windows 7 seems a bit.. cruel. They for the first time said. They Like it. I'd like to think they're kind of like my clients. I'd rather get them satisfied with what they have at my expense and see them happy over get them upset because i changed things too much. I will still try out ReactOS. I'm more interested in making the blooming OS work for me. Not the other way around. Feels like i'm working with the Kenyan GOV"T! Watchman.

Rahim, What seems to be the problem? I have used the OS for the longest time now and i can confirm that it is stable and fast. I use mine with Security Essentials-Ms proprietory AV and I must say that the AV is quite impressive as well. It only pops when I have an AV, the rest of the time it works in the background.

Claire, I am a fan of yours so I appreciate your sense of humour. I also appreciate where Okechukwu is coming from so I will sit this one out. (I hope u kiss and make up!)

Christian, I am not implementing any solution,I'm just trying to understand a scenario such as the wikileaks one where the 'master' site was offline but the mirrors were online. So who or what decides when to direct traffic to a mirror,which mirror and how is this implemented? I have a feeling Wash has answered me but he was speaking latin. So Wash, one more time in English please? :-)

John Doe, I have never bothered to read wikileaks because by the time it was hot, it was also under siege by you-know-who so I did not experience the aspect of mirroring they used. If you tell me the behaviour I can probably tell you how it was implemented. I am not familiar with their context. Care to explain with examples, and I do the delving in on the implementation technique?:) -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Damn!! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
