I just wanted to add (maybe totally unrelated), that I've decided AGAINST moving to WUP because of the "fatness" of the application. It seems WAY more clunky, hard to operate, and doesn't load as fast (most important) than WUG. It's REALLY slow on my Win2000 system. Very sad to see this from Ipswitch. I'm sticking to WUG, it's lean and mean and works well, don't know why WUP was craeated to have more bells and whistles yet be more of a drag on the system and slower. Bad upgrade, IMHO. pj

Was it a misstake? Actually you will see significant slowdowns with XP-SP2. This is not a problem with WUP. The slowdown is because of changes to the TCP stack made by Microsoft. I have attached a web page(from Microsoft) that vaguely describes one aspect of the problem. Basically WUP will work just fine on XP-SP2. It just runs significantly slower in some circumstances.

Was it a misstake? Hi, After applying SP1, response time went way down. It became so bad, the product was unusable. I erased and reinstalled it without SP1, and things went back to normal. It is currently running on a pc with XP-SP2. Do you know of any compatability issues? We have a server on order. When it arrives, I'll try WUP on that. >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 3/14/2005 7:38 AM >>> Magnus, Maillist, > Is it just me or am I doing something wrong? I'm also experiencing lack of speed in WUP. Connecting trough MSTSC to my Windows hosts, WUP application is extremely slow. Network runs smooth, MSTSC also does. Simply WUP runs at snail pace.
