I need some help with Xfire

[fightingclam]

Ok, here's my situation. I installed Xfire, and apparently I wasn't supposed to. I've noticed my ping has risen, but only just a bit. I still get lag, and I'm wondering if it's my computer, or the servers I play on? (JBA, Merc, HA-DC) If this is a issue with my computer, then how do I uniinstall/get rid of Xfire?
Thanks,

EDIT: Has Xfire created any extra noticable lag for you guys that have it?

Xfire can create lag for you especially if you are using an older computer or have a slow connection.
It takes up processing power, memory, and bandwidth.

People like me with a decent computer and great connection don't notice any difference with or without xfire running.

Thanks Matt. I think it's because i have a pretty old computer, even though i have okay connections. Thanks!

After I started using xfire, I noticed I was lagging more, I simply sacrificed some graphic quality, and less lag for me.

How do you reduce the graphic qualities? This is a moment

When you load the main SWBF2 menu, go to options, then video, change everthing to low except for view and LOD distance. (Thos are my settings anyway, experiment.)

Thanks Stew! It definitely helped, and my dad is happy with the lower amount of lag(althought i didnt get any in the 1st place)
