When I first upgraded I found E5.1 awful slow and crashy. I found the
following helped:--
--More RAM. (It's quite greedy)
--Reinstalling the program.
--Trashing the settings.
--Turning off plugins and things I don't use like that fecking
profanity warning thingey.
--Throwing away the contents of /.../Eudora Folder/Ads Folder/
But most of all...
--Removing the UMAX VistaScan Control Strip plugin. This horrible
thing was slowing my entire machine down, and once it was gone,
everything seemed better. Eudora stopped crashing. It is without
doubt the most badly written control strip module I have ever
encountered.
