I am using both Windows XP SP3 32-bit and Windows RC 7 64-bit on 2 seperate drives. The RC drive has Bullguard x8.7 64-bit AV/firewall software installed with a tuned firewall that monitors the new OS as I test it out. That being said I made sure all applicable ports for curse client are open for it to download and work.

The problem I have is after Addon downloads the actual extraction that is being done by your client is SO FREAKING SLOW I am loosing my mind!!! This is a clean Windows install and on BOTH systems it does the same thing. The download goes fine for the 1-3 Addons it downloads at once then the actual extraction is excrutiatingly slow. I went to the kitchen made a sandwich, made some coffee, watched some TV and came back 15 mins later and its STILL GOING!!!! Still extracting the 1st of 3 files it downloaded. I can manually download ALL 130+ of the mods I use and extract em in the time it takes Curse client to do JUST ONE!!!!

I have tried restarting the computer in both OS's, killed the curse.exe process, uninstalled and reinstalled from a fresh copy and serilously what is wrong with your client to actually extract SO SLOW one mod, any mod you name it its not the mod its the curse client!

I am using version 3.0.0.7 of the client and either pane "Your AddOns" or "unidentified AddOns" it does the same thing.

Also, the little extration window in the lower right corner of the screen is static you can't move it to see whats behind it like for instance the Firefox NoScript button to allow permissions to any page your browsing with Firefox during the Addon extraction phase.

PS: can you guys make the"Post a message" font size for creating forum threads a bit BIGGER, 6 point font size is ridiculous. Who can read that small? I had to create this post in Word and copy it into your forum message creator. Yes, I know the IE/Firefox browsers can incease the font size but its not the same thing. On normal pages I have to then decrease the sizes cause they are way too big.

I actually have the same problem on my XP machine, though not to this severity.  I have Windows XP SP2 on my desktop, and the extraction phase for the first addon I download in a series takes a little bit, but then the rest go fine.  On my laptop, which has Vista SP1, I suffer no delay in extraction.
