...well, read this post and you will find a possible solution!
Doing my daily reading across several forums and blogs, I found a FREE tool which blokes connections from spammers, spyware sites, ads sites, private corporations, etc. It's name is PeerGuardian 2.
I've installed it on my computer and amount of connections blocked is incredible, plus the speed of the downloads has increased dramatically
It's free, the code is available to download in case you are afraid of what this tools does on your system....Why not!
Enjoy

Audio Cards - PCI-e Vs PCI 2.1
Steve Erickson, vice president for Creative's audio products , has explained why new powerful and high performance Sound Blaster Cards are not available in PCI-e technology:
As far as PCI Express (PCIe) is concerned, which is the next bus, what we found is that the performance of PCIe is truly bad for audio. We are seeing four times degradation on the bus for audio.
PCIe is designed for graphics and high data transfer, but audio sends very small packets and the overhead can be very big! Moving the data across PCIe is much, much higher than PCI. So what we have to do is go back to the drawing board and work on the transport part of the chip and re-design it to add more silicon to overcome some of the problems we had with PCIe. So for us to come up with a PCIe solution is going to take a while because we have to overcome the problems we're facing with that bus.
Did you know ? I didn't!

Davis take that building!!!!!!
Yes, Its COD Time
Call of duty 2 is out and Gonza has been playing 3 days killing bloody Nazis across Russia and Africa and France.
The game has not changed since COD -United Offensive some graphics, same AI some gameplay but more difficult and I have to say... ACTION NON STOP!!!!
Enemy soldiers come out from buildings like ant, while you platoon will remain covered and firing their guns but nobody will move forward if you don't do it first.
Sometimes is very silly, because you have 3 MG-42 + 5 soldiers firing at you but if you drop a smoke grenade .......@........ Silence.... They stop fighting!!!!! So you can advance and kill them all!
in 3 days I've finished the Russian Campaign and almost finished the British one and playing in HARDENED!!!
I'm very disappointed with the game, because is identical to COD United Offensive and this should be a completely new game
Good: Very addictive, lots a different weapons, KILLING SPREED!!!!!!!!
Bad: New scenarios in an old game, very lineal and very poor AI
My Review: 6/10
