They do the exact same thing. Z4 just does it all for you.

You can get z4root there. As for the process all you have to do is hot the root button and it will do the rest. Then yes you can get the bootstrapper

+1 just make sure you turn USB Debugging on. If it hangs at the exploit screen, just hit home, reboot, and run the Permanent Root command again.

I just rooted my X today with z4root. That was easy, took about 3 min including the download to pc and transfer to sd.

So now I want to freeze some bloatware. What do I need to do this?

To do it safely you'll need either root explorer or titanium backup. TB is way easier imo

+1! Do NOT uninstall the bloat as that can cause a lot of issues down the road. Freeze with TB instead. You have to get TB Pro to freeze apps though.

It will stop them from opening/running.
