receiving bitcoin

While Bitcoin core is syncing, you should still be able to do a dumpprivkey in the console window.  You can then sweep and import into a lite wallet like electrum. 

This is good advice.

I personally don't have any problem yet, with Electrum.

Why there are some people suggest blockchain.info wallet for better to use bc.i wallet is long time ago has been removed from bitcoin.org wallet list, for web wallet i suggest to use BitGo and don't store big amount on that.

There is nothing more easy than buy bitcoin from tested webs, like bitstamp is. Or ask here before you try it any where. On that smaller webs it can be dangerous.

I personally use Multibit.

... The Classic version 0.5.18

Never heard of this HD Version. But apparently it siphons BitCoin off your sent tx. Not cool!

Classic version does not do this.

it has an additional 1000 satoshi fee which goes straight to the developer, which if you ask me, is well deserved. 1000 satoshi isnt even that much, i dont know why people complain about a fraction of a penny.
