Don't you mean 300M(B)?
nope, i mean 300k, it aint windows itself, it more like a tweaking program, u can remove unwanted windows things, that before were impossible, there is also a 9x edition.

How safe is this? It's still beta. :unsure:
pretty safe, as it only removes a few little things nothing major.

It doesn't seem to remove much, so not worth it I think.
thats cause its only beta just to test some feature, the release will have alot more features.

it disables windows file protection.....that makes this program very useful considering what it takes to disable it manually. :P

Why would you want to disable WFP? Just to say that you can? You might as well just whip it out right now! See who's the bigger man. LoL :lol:

I think everyone uses wallpapers. I have a new one everyday. Screensavers I never use. They are pointless. I just set the monitor to turn off. Why have the monitor on for hours if it's not being used? :rolleyes:

WFP sucks when, like me, you try to replace the standard notepad.exe with something more functional, without having to reassociate everything that's already associated with Notepad.

What's the point of that? A couple of jpegs isn't going to reclaim much space. Besides, most of the XP wallpapers are pretty cool. Like Stonehenge, and the yellow flowers.
but the point is getting rid of all the crap that come swith the os, that you usally dont have a choice, but now with lite pc, u can, remove i.e etc, remove media player, and use ur own programs, which is very handy.
i tried the 98 version, and it ran alot smoother, u could also replace the 98 kernel, so remove all the integration with ie. and it ran alot smoother.

I don't think the XP kernal needs to be replaced. It's already rock solid. Getting rid of IE doesn't sound like a good idea. Love it or hate it, we all need it for some websites. How else are you supposed to get windows updates? :huh:
i meant u could do that in the 9x version, u could replace the 98 kernel, with a stripped out one, or even the 95 kernel,
the xp kernel is fine, but u could remove all the integration with ie, and ie itself and use ur own browser, like mozilla, or stripping it down for use as a hoem server etc, u dont want all the crap runnign to slow it down/

I'd rather have IE integration than Mozilla. IE is more reliable I think. It's almost garunteed to work. Windows Update does not work with any browser but IE.
u could stil download the individual updates, but as i said, some people would be wantint to do it, i would maybe remove the ie integration but i would still use it as my browser.
