Ok, this looks pretty cool!

But....

A 24MB .Net overhead requirement to support a 860k Utility?

What do you mean 24 MB .NET overhead?

Who doesn't have .NET installed anymore anyway if not on a server OS? Those people should be few and far between.

This is very nice :)

#3,

In case you didn't notice, if you don't have .NET installed (which I didn't - No need for it), it requires you to download the 24MB .NET package, which it takes care of for you.

Actually, Lookout came before X1, but X1 was the first to attempt selling their product commercially.

X1 also had some early problems with certain combinations of Outlook and Exchange when messages with attachments had been migrated from earlier versions. Really nasty crashes. They eventually figured it out, but it was frustrating that the product which was supposedly ready for commercial sale was really less mature.

The search-as-you-type is definitely a key differentiator for X1, but I find it a bit annoying.
