At the moment (having just upgraded to V4) my WUs are getting to 100% after only a few mins, also whilst it is running my mouse is REALY stuttery, not the normal stutteryness you could expect from windoze and i am getting a few MD5 checksum errors. guess you guys have a problem or something? also your website looks realy messed up, like its in 'times new roman' and im not sure what else but it looks weird.....:)

Same thing over here WinMe + V4.05 erratic Mouse, some corrupt progs, slowdown enormously and blocked, not restartable with CTRL-ALT-DEL. Had to switch everything off. Even after remove and reinstall the same SHIT...

Advice DONT RUN THIS PROG UNTIL THEY CLEANED UP THEIR AWFULL MESS

No issues here, and I've been running 4.xx for several weeks. (Win XP Pro)

As for the quick WUs, I believe these will be -9 overflows. Otherwise known as a "noisy" WU. You will see these from time to time.

After the initial scan, it is determined the resulting output file will be too large, and the WU exits. As this is not an error, you will get a few credits for these.
