XFIRE IS A PROGRAM THAT WILL MESS UP YOUR COMPUTER! I experianced this all reapeatedly on several differant computers:

-Games recognised by xfire will not play offline.

-Games such as Counter-Strike Source's in game server browser will crash your whole computer.

-Mods for many games no longer run, they cause the whole main program to stop responding.

-some games will no longer run if you uninstall xfire, you will have to re-install the game.


All this concidered, the program, however convenient, is not worth your time. after removing xfire, these problems ceased. The only game I had to reinstall was Halo. all my mods began to work again (good thing too, I make HL2 mods now and then) and my Americas Army game worked for the first time in god knows how long.

i, 101% agree with robo leader, xfire sort of lagged my halo multiplayer servers, and even my capaign. and in the xfire.com forums, ive heard FACT, not rumors, the actual FACTS, tht xfire's ads, like on top of ur xfire window, theres ads, but some of those ads have been traked down with TROJANS, so if one normal day, yoo clik one ad by MISTAKE adn THTS the one with teh trojans, well then theres nuthin u realy can do, cuz after u delete tht trojan, more comes out
and also wen i minimize my xfire window, the whole thing gets logged off, so i gotta log bak on, it gets realy annoying if u have lots of IM chat windows, or internet browser windows open, and ur forced to minimize xfire.
XFIRE, in my opinion tht is, is not worth d/l ing, unless ur willing to risk getting trojans, and get some heavy duty virus scanners, and ur willing to risk playing on halo ce servers with like 500 ping or more on ur account, its up to yoo ppl

I have never had any serious problems with xfire. It does not slow my pc down, in fact I have actually had some of my best games since I downloaded xfire. Do you people that have problems with it, download a ton of skins or something? Trojans are farely easy to get rid of with the proper anti-spyware.

After having it for several months now, I could'nt imagine not having it.

I have never had any serious problems with xfire... said by ZZZENNN

so ur saying u never had any SERIOUS problems, and tht in pure english, means tht u DID have at least a minor probem with xfire, am i correct? cuz if im wrong, read over ur first sentence, wat u said means tht u at least had some minor problems here adn there.

im not trying to be mean, ZZZENNN, but im just saying wat u said would clearly go to the ppl tht hate xfire's side, not the ppl tht likes xfires sides.

The only MINOR problem I had was....I downloaded an XP skin for it. I could not get the in-game chat to work.

Thats it..big deal eh?

Unless it actually gets logged off, you can double-click on the xfire icon that appears in the bottom right side of the taskbar where all the other mini-icons are. That'll pull every xfire window you have running right back up. If it actually logs off of xfire when you minimize (you hear the sounds and it specifically says it logs off), then that's pretty weird.
