Indeed.

I am usually using SRWare Iron and Opera myself  - speed is no luxury  ;D.
Just wanted to mention that there is now an Iron alternative in the Comodo Dragon Browser, which claims to have similar benefits as Iron.  I have not tried it myself.

Thanks for the tip off. :)

I have to retract my approval for CleanMem,
with windows 7 it actually slows response time for starting apps.
Even FireFox when it's minimized.

It didn't happen with XP like with W7.

Anyway, better late then never.....

btw if you go to the Chrome Forum:
http://www.chromeplugins.org/google/

there's a small program mentioned that claims to strip off the unique ID from your Chrome install.  That way you can use the original Chrome instead of an off-shoot.

Well, duh - those programs have never brought along any optimization - at best, they do the same thing as Windows' internal memory cleanup routines does, at worst they pessimize your system.
