I thought it was ok to start with too, the problems become apparent after a while.
The worst is the prolonged pointless disc thrashing that just starts for no reason, I can't see my hard disc lasting the year out. I have followed every damn tip I can find, turned off windows search, superfetch, readyboost, automatic defrag, automatic defender virus check, set a fixed virtual memory and done clean ups. I have checked for viruses and other malware and nothing else is running. I have a decent spec machine and adequate memory. So WTF is caning my disc? Aaaagh it's just started again!
You will probably also soon find that for no obvious reason the enhanced security starts to slow things down and it takes ages to save a mail attachment or open an office app. I got round one problem by having a special version of Excel.exe renamed as <rude word>.exe. What does that say about the security?
