System Mechanic, how does it rate?

[Derrick Fawsitt]

System Mechanic, is it worth buying and using as a means of keeping a PC
in top order or is it a waste of money. Also, if its worth buying,
should you use its anti-virus instead of a dedicated alternative
programme such as AVG or MacAfee. I am currently trying it out and it
seems to have got rid of more temporary files than any programme in XP
has done but how much can you rely on its performance.

System Mechanic is one of the best utility programs I have found.
I use it along with Norton Internet Security and my system runs
beautifully!

I have been very pleased with System Mechanic. Have had no problems with it.

I am not happy with System Mechanic version 3 and will not update to version
4. The registry cleaner is my main problem which is not as efficient, or
reliable as the free Easy Cleaner. Please address any replies to the news
group. My email address is false.
