A Faster Windows XP Computer in Two Easy Steps

  • Remove Konfabulator a.k.a. Yahoo Widgets.  It’s a memory and network bandwidth hog.  This is more apparent when you remote desktop to a machine with Widgets running.  Yuck.
  • Remove Google Desktop.  Ditto.  I love Google, but I’ve suffered long enough with their Desktop Search.  It slows down my machine, not to mention the search mechanism is spotty with Outlook (where I use the search function most of the time).  To be honest, as far as Outlook search plugins, Lookout is WAY better.
