Duration of ownership: 2 Days
Strengths: It does everything it claims to do.
Weaknesses: None, yet.
Overall Evaluation: This is probably the best free product I've downloaded. It doesn't push a sell for something else and it delivers about all one needs to keep his/her computer clean and running well. The program has not removed anything that caused harm to the system. I highly recommend this software.

Strengths: it finds basically every single bug possible. it gave me lists of thousands of fixes, even though i already run a lot of antivirus and spyware programs on my computer. it also is very easy to use and has tons of features
Weaknesses: CAUTION! be carful what you delete! especially some registry and file fixes, some are important to windows. i deleted some important files/registry keys and my system crashed. i had to boot it using my vista CD given when i bought the computer.
Overall Evaluation: read above. it finds tons of viruses, just be carful what you delete. i had to boot using vista recovery CD, found myself with BSOD, but managed to recover using the CD's built-in restore tool, it allowed me to access my crashed OS's restore points. Great product, but must be careful! i recommend this for someone who knows what they are doing.

Strengths: it's a super great free program that absolutely does a fantastic job of finding cleaning*optimizing your p.c it does do the job of 4 programs grab it i was amazed how well it works with a one click of the mouse and it's fast too***** you know we all grab/try out free programs and iv,e tried tons for free ones this has been the best iv,e found* I paid $29.95 for p.c optimizer2.0 and you don't get updates and it's a 1 year program yeah it works but there's plenty of free ones that do great jobs** also DUMP the stuff in your PREFETCH FOLDER weekly and notice that difference*â¥parrotloverâ¥

Strengths: The program does alone what requires four or more programs to do. It is very quick, and most effective for a wide variety of needs. Defrags,System check, disc check,privacy check, spy ware removal, registry fix, junk file removal,connection and system optimizer, short cut fixer, and the list goes on. This is the best all in one utility out there. Use it in addition to your firewall, anti-virus and anti-spyware programs. It is a one click system to do so much. Doing a Disk Check can take a long time on a reboot through the normal system. Doing it with Advanced System Care is amazingly fast.
Weaknesses: Honestly have found none. However, I would not rely on it alone for total care of anti-virus and anti-spyware issues, use it in conjunction with other credible programs.
Overall Evaluation: Superior...I used the free version for over a year, was most impressed. Purchased the upgrade to Pro version for a significant reduced promotional price. Don't see a lot of difference, the free version will do the job just fine if you don't choose to up grade. I am amazed at the number of bad reviews. Simply cannot give this product a greater endorsement than to say I have tried hundreds of programs over the years and this is a MUST have program. Will make your computing life a lot more enjoyable and easier.HONESTLY !! Get it TODAY. You will be glad you did ! I am 70 years old and have not connections or affiliations to anyone one or any company, just love living in this new information age of electronics. Thank you Bill Gates for WINDOWS....gee, remember MOS DOS ! :(

Strengths: Speeds up computer, One program that does mostly everything.
Weaknesses: Is a massive program, so slows computer down because of that. Too easy to delete important files
Overall Evaluation: Deletes all sorts of unnecessary(and necessary) files but has a recover function. If you are running it it can use up to 50,000K of memory which is about equivalent to 4 tabs on Google Chrome...

Strengths: Ease of use, After 2 weeks upgraded to paid edition. Well worth the cost.
Weaknesses: Some parts of the UI are still under development.
Overall Evaluation: Easy to use comprehensive program for system clean-up, Reg. fixes, Spy-ware removal. Instead of using 3 or 4 different Apps. just use one and you get all the Bells and Whistles. No conflicts on Ultimate or a laptop using Premium. Highly Recommend.

Strengths: Easy to use, fast, fairly comprehensive set of tools
Weaknesses: none. would be nice if iObit included their disk deframenter in the suite rather than as a separate download.
Overall Evaluation: Very nice program that is easy to use and does what it says. I have run it on both an XP system and Vista Home Premium with no problems. Don't know why the person that had a problem, but I have had none. Reviews on CNet confirm that this is a great little program

Strengths: Fast and effective
Weaknesses: Haven't found any yet
Overall Evaluation: I've been using this program at least once a week and absolutely love it. Have had ZERO problems with it and each time it runs it finds and repairs many problems. I always get better speed, especially if I've gotten a bit sludged down from downloads infested with crap. I also use all the spyware freebies and Trend Micro's PC-cillin. I recommend this to my clients and haven't had any problems out there. Fast, effective and free. Doesn't get any better than that!

Strengths: It,is BAD,but the (Registry Cleaner & Spy-Ware),are a little on the (Not so good side),other than that,my over-all,system Boosted up word about 125%!!
Weaknesses: Like i said up top there,the (Registry Cleaner),is not all up to (Par),i use (Registry Mech:),and then will run (AWC),and it will say i have (Quote this is an estimate)10,15,things it found? So,i really get confuced? Then the (Spy-Ware),thing,well i use (Zone Alarm Secuity Suite),and do a system scan,to clean that spy-ware up,and then use (AWC) Advanced Windows Care Pro,i have,and it will find one or 3-4-5 things?? So,it kinda leaves you there trying to figure out (Which one is better??!!!?? ),and yes i have tryed it both ways turn one off,and scan and turn one on and scan? So,id say the (Freebie),is the best one!!
Overall Evaluation: I like it,but i will not ever pay for it again?>>>NO>>NO>>NO>>!!!!! That free version,of the product is all you need!! And it is GREAT,at Boosting your system to run faster now!! AWizard54
