Post Faster defrag

If you happen to ME installed, try copying defrag.exe from it to your other 95 or 98 versions.

Runs much faster.

There's no way I'm touching anything made by Norton!

Ahh, the BEST one that I have personally found, is a program called VOPT.. they have created a new version to work with ME... and NT.. etc etc...

this is a VERY VERY VERY nice defrag program.
Why? cause it doesnt do the crap norton does of allowing you to move files around and doing this and doing that, it does DEFRAG!

I have personally defraged a 30 gig harddrive that was 18%!! fragmented in 40 minutes... Even Windows ME couldn't do it that fast!!! give it look see, they have trial versions...

I liked it so much, I actually PAID for it!

Turn off the "Rearrange files so my programs start faster" setting ....slows down defrag no end !
