I signed up for the BETA test as well. I signed up through Microsoft community.

I couldn’t run the PC Checkup – it said I didn’t have internet access when I did, and the other utilities worked fine.

I had to disable the process for the Advisor due to it was interfering with viewing a flash laden web site (www.ihop.com). After removing the process, the site loaded without any problem.

Also, the Diagnose and Repair feature for the wireless connection stated that there was a TCP/IP option that I didn’t need. I haven’t seen that before I installed the Advisor.

Let me know if I can keep the service as manual versus automatic. I’ll post what I find here.

And why does Outlook2007 clear the color categories for items when it archives them?

I agree. Sounds like something that would fit an AV kit.

But hopefully, this could be available for ALL Windows users (or at least XP SP2 and Vista) for free.

I’m really thinking though that it’s going to be well suited to head straight for Win7 instead. Hopefully it does its tasks right, and isn’t the least bit annoying.
