Ability to minimize DC++ when loading
When DC++ loads, as I'm sure you're all familiar, it has a bar that reads "Loading DC++, please wait...(whatever it's doing here)." What aggravates me is that I can't minimize or even move this bar while it's loading; is it possible, perhaps, to include that feature in the next version? (Or am I being a bafoon and there's already a way to do what I want?)

First, the loading bar reads, "Loading DC++, please wait...(Hash Database)" for 20 seconds. Following, it says, "Loading DC++, please wait...(Shared Files)," taking up the majority of the wait-time, 5 minutes and 40 seconds.
Total time: 6 minutes.
A far cry from the five seconds it's supposed to take. My computer is above the minimum requirements for this program; my hard drive's defragmented (I did it yesterday, in fact); 512 ram; windows xp.
Am I the only one having this issue?

10GB? local?! there is something really wrong with your system, it seems.
I share ~700GB, mostly from network drives, and it takes me about 3-4 minutes to load (BC)DC++.
and I have a slow system, compared to most.
(you can try BCDC++ though (find it on google), it will make the bar 70% transparent so you can at least view through it.)
