JetBrains .NET Profiler Early Access Program (EAP) starts

Jetbrains is opening it's early Access Program for it new tool .NET Profiler. Screen shot:

 

As I am already using ReSharper from them and can't work without it anymore as you can read in older post: Resharper 1.0 released and Resharper Build 84 secret feature, I decided to give it a try quickly. First I thought I will test my website but it did not work, certainly because I use the trick explained here to have multiple site on Windows XP. Then I quickly tried PostXING. I will check it a bit more and hopefully I will be able to test my web site: Tech Head Brothers.
