Fastest way to evolve from newbee to full status?

[SimonBelmond]

Whats the fastest way to get to the status so i can give my answer here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=221209.msg2331413#msg2331413

I guess I have to have a post. So this is it.

I always imagined that Armory scanns the blockchain at startup and goes through all adresses wich have ever received funds and inherrantly checks if the private key fits. Could that be?
