First update I have hated since 2003!

This is the first update, since 2003, that I have hated and found unworkable. I crashed frequently, locked up even more for no reason, and no, it was not my pc or ISP. Voice was buggy and worked inconsistently and the novelty wore off within 10 minutes of the music and sounds others were playing on top of the sim music. When I want to talk to friends online I happily use skype and never experienced crashing and lockups with SL while using it.

The new communication window is awful. It is too large and having to resort to it repeatedly for friends and profile made it hard to ignore. I dont like all that information combined into one window.

I wanted the new volume control tab to disappear when I disabled voice for my preferences and on my land but it stayed.

A kind member gave me a link to a copy of the prevoice client and I was very happy to uninstall the new voice client and reinstall the pre voice one. The crashing and lock ups were gone!

My fear is that I will be forced to upload the voice client one day with a required update or that all updates with bug fixes will only be added to the voice client.

We need dual track clients; one with the horrible features in the voice client and one without all that nonsense.

Your not the first person that has said that

There is enough to run a small country now. I reverfted back to ...http://s3.amazonaws.com/download-secondlife-com/Second%20Life%201-18-0-6%20Setup.exe.............
Noway am I going thur that BS again. I hope LLABS learned from this nightmare and totally showing the lack of repect for its users base. Don`t release some thing until its atleast 50% workable? If its even that. Never Never have i seen such junk frpm llabs. This is what you call adding support for building the client? I hope you paid those people in pesos and not USA monies because its not been worth the extra cost.
