1) Root access means you will have complete control of your phone, to load a custom ROM (e.g.- Cyanogenmod) or download apps that require root access from the Android Market
2) Only works on windows!!! (I know it gets annoying but i found a friend that let me do this on his computer)
3) You must have Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 or higher.

5) On phone go to Settings > Applications > Development > Check USB Debugging
6) Plug in phone in to computer
7) Right click the root program and click 'Run as Administrator'
8) Click the root button and wait for it to finish, YOU'RE ROOTED!! (See below if it gets stuck at 'waiting for device'

Reported Issues
Issue: rooting program gets stuck on waiting for device
Solutions:
1) Make sure USB debugging is enabled- If step fails, go to Step 2
2) Close rooting program, turn off phone (still plugged in). Open rooting program and click root button and the power button on your phone at the same time.- If step fails, go to Step 3
3) Close rooting program and un-plug phone. Go to PDANet site, and install the drivers required for your phone. Once done installing, plug the phone back in and re-open rooting program and try again
If none of these steps work then it's not worth going through the very complicated manual procedure
