 Worthless June 11, 2007

Loses its executable and requires reinstallation. I upgraded to SM 7 Pro same problem, after many reinstalls I had to buy again and am having the same problems with another computer. This software will cost you soooo much lost time and effort. After 7 months fighting this garbage software I am going back to Norton. I will suffer the 15 to 30 minutes slow-mo at startup with Norton, in favour of fatal errors with iolo. NOT RECOMMENDED AT ALL!!!!

THIS PRODUCT IS THE BEST. IVE USED THIS WITH 6 OF MY COMPUTRS AND RECOMMENDED IT TO MY FRIENDS. THEY ALL LOVE THIS PRODUCT AND HAD NO PROBLEMS WITH IT (IT DOES WHAT IT SAYS). IM THINGKING ABOUT GETTING THE NEW VERSION SM7 BUT IVE SEEN SOME BAD REVIEWS AND IM SCARED TO BUY IT BECAUSE IVE PUT ALLOT OF TIME INTO MY COMPUTER(S). I SUGGEST THAT YOU JUST GET OR STICK WITH THE 6 VERSION FOR NOW, THEN WHEN THEY COME UP WITH MORE UPDATES AND BUG FIXES WITH THE 7 VERSION AND SEE ALL IS WELL THEN I WOULD SUGGEST GETTING IT.

What an awful application! There is ZERO support. I have send a dozen emails to these people and get nothing but automated returns directing me to the FAQ which I've read through completely. They say they're there 24.7...but not for the customer. The application just doesn't work! I had to uninstall the firewall to use my vista machine, the Anti-virus stops my outlook cold. The "repair" stuff just tells you there is a problem, but not what it is. Beware of having this software clean up the "Clutter" for you, it will just as likely erase your OS and its components. Look for better solutions from symantec or macafee or about any other company.
 Not for everyone, but it worked for me... April 10, 2007
I've been using System Mechanic 6 Professional, for about a month. I'd have to say that the overall performance of Windows XP has improved greatly since installation. Upon starting System Mechanic, a general report is given on the overall health of Windows. It fixes problems in the registry, defragments the hard-drives/ram, and boosts internet performance. All of this is done is done in a short period of time (under an hour).
I've also read all the negative reviews on Amazon. I'm not going to dispute any of them, since each user has his/her own experiences using the product. All I can say, is that I'm glad that the software worked for me.
Don't Get Your Hopes Too High March 27, 2007
You likely won't get the system performance improvement that is advertised unless you had a very "messy" system. But it does have a great antivirus and firewall, and if you like to be able to tweak hidden settings and know a bit more about what is going on "behind the scenes", it's an okay product. But be very careful with the cleanup tool. It will delete some important files if you are not careful!!!
