Puts "Measurement Service Client v.3.4" in the C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files folder. I just deleted it and scanned...nothing suspicious.

I'm at 100% their's is 106% for over 3 grand. This test lies and I demand a recount.

How is a 64-bit AMD going to beat a 3.5 GHz P4?

Cypher if it is an AMD 64 FX it will beat the P4 but all other processors are inferrior.

Not at 3.5 GHz. Now if their running pure 64-bit (OS,drivers and apps) than hell yeah. I'd take what I'm running now over their Aurora Extreme anyday.

LLLLLLLOL
I just maxed out my overclock to 3.8ghz no where near stable and it still says that the Aurora Extreme is 15 percent faster!
100% pure bull****.
Cant believe futuremark would go do this.... Wonder how much they got paid to change the code...
