I am now compiling the x2goclient as a release version but look at the difference in size to the one that is distributed:

C:\Program Files\x2goclient>dir x2goclient.exe
26/11/2009  10:11         4,915,200 x2goclient.exe

C:\Program Files\x2goclient>dir c:\x2goclient-3.01\release\x2goclient.exe
10/11/2010  09:32         1,699,840 x2goclient.exe

The one I have compiled is half the size! Where is the x2goclient.pro.windows file that is mentioned in README.WINDOWS as I cannot find it ??
