Notable changes
Well, it's finally happened. After sticking to Comodo for so long, we had to part ways. It was unbearably buggy with the new update. To the point where doing a clean install was a hassle.

Switched over to Hard_Configurator and I find it extremely pleasant. Again, I know it's been said numerous times, but kudos to Andy_Ful for this great little gem. It runs really smoothly and no bloody bugs anymore!
