In my experience finding performance problems is rarely intuitive and often requires focused analysis tools to find the culprit. I once worked on a project where a given piece of code written by a junior engineer looked up a data item. Since he thought it wouldn't happen very often he used a linear search. When we brought the product up it performed very poorly (an understatement). After much analysis we figured out that his little search routine was b

Monnil, I have my OD+ setup the same way (Tasks, systray, programs, etc). I haven't experienced the issue that you describe. I just installed OD+ 1.3 and am running IE7 beta.

I'm Bill. 34+ years in the computer business (yes they had computers then). Too dang much information to wade thru! Can somebody point me to the noob doc? Having a lot of fun messing with OD and Window blinds. It isn't clear on the hierarchy of tools, skins, etc. So far I understand that a theme incorporates everything. So how does that relate to WB skins? I like wind
