How can I tell if a link has been used or not?

It doesn't matter, the owner just gets more delicious GBs, up to 50.

Is it me or is the client the shittiest thing in the world.

It literally just freezes for 5-10 seconds every time I click a single thing in back-up at all. The client is so loving unresponsive it's incredible. I just want to make a folder like dropbox and put things in it. :( One of it's processes just sits and eats an entire core and nothing works, it's been scanning DIRT 3 files for like the last 20 minutes.

Go in preferences, and check "Disable disk space calculations during backup selection".

It's not just you, but I don't know what it is. Anecdote time!

I installed the client on two PCs running XP. It works silky smooth on one, but has that annoying 5-10 second lag in the backup tab on the other. Settings are the same on both.

Here's the odd thing -- while the slow machine chugs, there is no disk access and Task Manager shows *no additional CPU utilization*.

The solution is on *this very page*.

Sounds like it's working exactly as intended.
