Lawrence, thank you very much for sharing your handy utility!

Do you know this great little "tool" for turning Win Server 2003 into Workstation mode? http://www.kood.org/win-2003-optimize-tool-v146/

Take a look. Maybe there are one or two things in there you can bring across to winbubble!

=(...what happens when Windows 7 comes out? Anyways, wishing I had Vista to try out this program, messing with XP in the registry (for me) is a dangerous game.

Windows 7?

When Windows 7 comes, WinBubble will always be there.
That's a promise... As long as people will accept my programs
and utilities.

Nothing, I just don't trust "tweaking" programs especially when they haven't been certified by Microsoft. Stardock is a fine company that works directly with Microsoft and has been around for 10 years.

He's plugging this thing everywhere he can: http://www.vistax64.com/software/110...ta-easily.html

Doesn't even have an official website either?

Yeah, you maybe right there.... but this guy has been talked about in more then one Mag. and where do you see that there isn't a official website? This would be considered a "official" site for the program....

Stardock is a over played company that, yes for 10 years, have given more and more headachs then helpfulness. IMO. I've used Winbubble in my computer for almost a year, and I haven't see anything wrong, and update every time this guy gives us one! Unlike Stardock, he is looking for customer feed back at FREE. And, so what if A mod thinks the program is a hoot? I bet Mods on here would say the same thing for something, and what? We HAVE to do what they say? It's are stuff, and we do what we fill fit.

If I had to pay for this, I would love to... To where with Stardock I wouldn't spend a dime on their products...

Oh wait.... After reading more on the site you showed.. The ADMIN to the site likes it and is adding it to their software list...

if you dont trust tweaking programs that aren't certified by microsuck, thats good for you, but doesn't authorize you to bash someone thats put a lot of time and effort into creating an excellent tweaking program. and im glad hes trying to spread the word, that's how its done. things dont just get spread all around the web by themselves, they start small, and are promoted by the author and people like triprift and myself, and they eventually get more popular. i'd rather get winbubble then spend a lot of money on stardock just cause its certified by microsoft. and guess what, microsuck doesn't even certify half of the crap on my comp, and guess what? my comp runs great and its got loads of excellent programs that didn't pay a large sum of money to microsoft just for a little badge saying approved by microsoft. and half the crap microsoft certifies doesn't deserve to be, its just stuff microsoft wants their name on.

also lawrence, i can offer you some free webhosting if you'd like to host an official site for winbubble, please PM me

I have been using this little jewel for awhile now.... I trust it 100%. It's simple to use and does not have the headaches that other programs of this type have.
He probably put alot of time and effort into its development. I would "plug" it to everybody I could get to listen to me.
Thanks Lawrence. Some of us really do like it.

Calm down people. Nobody needs to go ballistic on me. I'm just voicing my opinion about non-preference for tweaking software that isn't endorsed by Microsoft running on my OS. That's all. Take it or leave it, no need to go from there.

I'm sure many people here are happy. That's up to them.

Yeah, like I said, I get where your at. But that post just goes on to bash the guy for trying from the ground up to get things going. Have you ever done something like he has? I've started up web sites, and went threw hell getting stuff going for people that where just trying to sell things. Let alone Build something from the ground up.
Then the mod. Like everyone else, they have their opinions on things.. So what if a mod at a Vista site says no for it. Some may agree, some may not. Its a free world...Just know that Most Microsoft based tweakers and programs come from the people like LawrenceAlbert that just make their product, have others use it, then go the that company and say, "I got data from "x" this, and that, and believe you might like it".

One feature: Taking the ownership of folder option will be added.
As requested by one of Winsupersite users.

There are many more features that I want to add But I want something
unique like the "MyTweaker" Tool inside WinBubble which lets you create your own tweaker.

Soon WinBubble 1.73 will be release...

It let's you create your own tweaker.

here

There are some Customizations under development that will be release in the future versions.
Sorry, It's a secret for now.

Tons of ideas in my mind right now. Not only Tweaking tools.
I hope I can share them as soon as possible.

If I can only write programs everyday, I will do it.
But I can't, I need to work. There is no money yet in WinBubble all negative.
That's fine for me. I'm happy with all the accomplishments of my Software(s).


Anyway, Thank you very much sir...

I'm not the only one that sees this guy tooting his own horn, eh?

Reminds me of a woman I work with that's always randomly shouting out how amazing or how much of a genius she is. I really hope she screws up and gets fired...but that's going off on a tangent. Sorry.

Hmmmm, so you're only one person using it and you've downloaded it that many times? So that means he should cut the actual downloads of his software by 80% to get an actual figure on how many people are using it?

Come to think of it, each update is a new download is it not? It doesn't have some auto update feature in it since there's no home server to dial back to. So 20,000 people out of the tens of millions of people using Vista doesn't mean much.

Just kidding, LA. I'm sure some people actually use and like it.

No, its the fact that I have had 2 dead video cards, two dead motherboards, One bad NFTS file after ocing, to the fact I do CLEAN os's when I update hardware like Motherboards... So theres your Downloading. I could tell you where to put it. But, I'd rather be nice. No kidding to me. IF you feel the need to bash some more. Come to it.

There's a valid point though... which is... download counter should be based on EACH VERSION, since most people (like myself) who gave it a go... also downloaded the next point version etc. etc. to see if the tool got better etc. etc.

So while I wish LA a lot of luck in developing his great tool and promoting it... there have been at least 5 versions so far, so the relevant stats are downloads of the last version. That is a better representation of the number of unique people who are still interested in the tool.

PS. I like it. 8/10 to LA.

Hello guys... Thanks for calling me LA

Like what I always tell in the forums/communities.

I'm NOT Good in programming. Maybe I'm just lucky?
Or maybe I analyze the situation correctly.
In the right time and place(s).

One thing that I will not forget.
WinBubble was created by the users and for the users.

I'm an electronics engineer working in a company Not related to IT so, they can't
fire me. this is my hobby and i'm happy sharing it to others.
