dgjxolox is flying high

I'd be happy to give that a try, but I don't know how to go about doing this. Any suggestions? The only thing I can think of off-hand is to have xolox and my internet connection as the only things running. Is that what you are suggesting. If that fails - the computer hangs and requires a hardware reset - are there any diagnostics of information I could gather that would help with this problem. It strikes me that a program that eats up all the resources on a PC and then hangs up the PC as being pretty user hostile. Does any flow control, or throttling back on resource consumption take place in xolox? I've worked with computers for 25-26 years so I'm not uncomfortable with programs not working properly, but I think if xolox works this way the progam will lose potential users.

I've looked at cnet and user opinion of xolox and it seems pretty low, which is too bad. It seems that a lot of the negative entries are related to computers being hung up. Thanks!
