Great work. XP is Microsoft's best OS and deserves to be kept alive and kicking. I use it in a VM on Windows 7, a net book and an old desktop. I'll always have a soft spot for XP :)

Forget it! Keeping XP alive is not going to happen. XP was an excellent OS in its day, but nowadays it's obsolete and its time to finally die is imminent. People said the same thing about DOS. How many people today even know how to use DOS?

As of 2014 Microsoft will no longer support XP. There will be no more updates. This is dangerous given that the vast majority of updates are security related.

As I've said countless times, the problem is simply that XP is too old and was never designed for use with today's hardware. You can only upgrade any OS up to a point, beyond that the whole thing has to be rewritten from scratch.

Only those of you stuck with old hardware and unable to upgrade should be using XP. On newer systems there is simply no justification.

True! I don't hide that.
You don't know how much time and effort I put to release this!
I won't be rich because of some users purchasing premium membership on those sites, but at least I'll get some $ for my effort.
Please, DO NOT send messages for support! Ask on the forums. Thank you.

I just had to register after reading the last few posts. I can't stand when people come on to a site like this and then complain because they are put out a bit, it just seems selfish.  I KNOW how much work and effort you put into this and I appreciate it greatly. You won't find any complaints here. I hope you continue to do this for a very long time. I have been benefiting from your hard work on these for quite some time now and want to thank you for all you do, keep up the great work. :)
