SD Central annoyances !

December 10, 2003 8:40 PM from

I have spent the past 2 days trying to stop SD Central from accessing the internet, even when the program was closed. Granted, I have object dock open to maintain my new shiny desktop but I am an online serial gamer to whom bandwidth is life { or death }, and since installing SD have experienced serious bandwidth hogging when trying to play Call of Duty online to the extent of being unplayable. I have a top spec computer and an adsl connection and yet SD causes intermitent ( 5-10 sec ) freezes when I am in a games server.
I would be interested to know if anyone else has experienced this lag / freezing and a sensible solution if possible, as the only way I have so far been able to play games online since installing SD is to remove the .exe from the SD folder everytime

I've never noticed a problem. There should be a setting somewhere in SD Central to stop it from accessing the internet except when you want it to.

Disable Tray Startups and go into SDC settings and un-check all auto undates.
