I've optimized my hard drive, and it works fine..
If you try to do some of the low level disk *repair* utilities, then they
won't work.. Because the boot block is changed by TaiFunBoot.. Unfortunately
there seems to be no easy way to *uninstall* TaifunBoot.
For the most part though, it works VERY well..
I repeat, it does *NOT* wreck your hard drive when you optimize. I've done it
a whole bunch of times since I installed TaifunBoot a while ago.. and I know
that the files are not corrupted.
