If your Poser 5 was one of those that ran REALLY slowly, way slower than most people's, then there is just a chance that removing Content Para-site MAY get your Poser 5 to perform to the same level as others!

Too early to say if one of them is the cause for the slowdown or not. But there shouldn't be 2 entirely different versions of posershell.xml files...
