[PLUG] MaxMySpeed

[Robert Kopp]

I didn't expect it to work, but I was wondering what it would do, if anything. 
It just crashed. (WINE can run unprivileged, as I did in this case, so I doubt 
that running a dubious Windows application will do any harm.)

i was going to suggest that it might run faster if you set it on fire first.
given that the author has a page like this http://analytic.tripod.com/id20.htm
on his website, i'm guessing/hoping/praying it's a joke.
