It does too good of a job when it doesn't?,
By
This review is from: iolo System Mechanic 7 Professional - 3 PCs (CD-ROM)
It's good at finding bugs in the registry, spyware, and other nasties.
The trouble is, cleaning seems to rip out other applications' settings (such as PhotoImpact 11) and requiring a reinstall (or repair install) of those applications. I also did a disk scan and it claimed there were problems requiring a chkdsk (I use WinXP w/SP2). A full disk scan revealed NO problems at all. Reassuring as I've been getting freaked out, but annoying because I can't find any other causes. AND this is on a newly formatted PC as well. As v7 is a new release, wait for a product update or bug fix. Once the wrinkles are ironed out, I think this will be a good product. Right now it's overzealous and also has a tendency to find menace behind every shadow. 02/09/07 update: They have released a patch since my original review. Having installed it, it's been working MUCH better; and no applications (esp. PhotoImpact 11!) have had to be repaired or re-installed on a daily basis. And it fully recognized Trend Micro PC-Cillin firewall/antivirus. If anything, running the detection wizard keeps finding ONE security vulnerability, which it claims it fixes, but an immediate re-scan still shows the vulnerability. It doesn't say any detail information, so I can't manually repair it. However, all the other programs are gone and it does a competent job at cleaning up garbage and compressing the registry, and I've put my system through the paces (reluctantly, reformatting is a nightmare...)

IT FRIED MY OPERATING SYSTEM! AVOID! AVOID! AVOID!,
By
This review is from: iolo System Mechanic 7 Professional - 3 PCs (CD-ROM)
You are lucky. You will read all these customer reviews and AVOID the kind of disaster I experienced today. After activating several of the modules in this software and rebooting MY COMPUTER WOULD NOT GO INTO WINDOWS...IT WENT INTO AN ENDLESS CYCLE OF REBOOTING...BLUE SCREEN...REBOOTING. Going into safe mode allowed me to get into Windows but even after several registry rollbacks the same thing kept happening. Fortunately I had a day old Acronis image backed up on an external drive so I was able to get my computer running again (but with a full day's e-mail and work gone forever). Be warned--this is the worst software ever! Avoid at all costs!

Suprisingly Bad -- Wait for Updated Version,
By Simeon Hein "Planetary Intelligence author" (www.OpeningMinds.info, Boulder, CO, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: iolo System Mechanic 7 Professional - 3 PCs (CD-ROM)
I've been a fan of Iolo products for a long time. But make no mistake. Version 7 of System Mechanic Professional is a disaster. I don't know how a company that has produced such good products in the past good make such a mistake. First of all, the internet firewall blocks your favorite programs with no way to unblock them. Like other reviewers on this page, it blocked one of my email accounts, and I couldn't find a way around it. Clicking on the "allow" button on the pop-up menu had no effect. Also, there is no way to manually unload the firewall through the windows system manager once your computer is booted up. You have to disable the firewall before it starts up.
Second, version 7 of the program now runs in the background. Though this may seem convenient, it noticeably slowed down my desktop and used up most of my memory producing a frequent "low memory" warning and inability to open some programs. My desktop has 512k of memory, which though it's less than new computers, should be able to handle a program like this. So if you have an older machine you will need to uncheck many of the software's automatic features. The anti-virus doesn't seem as noxious as the firewall, though it seems to have misidentified some of my valid software as a viruses. Personally, I think the Kaspersky firewall and anti-virus included in version 6 Professional were better programs as they are much lighter on system resources and faster to respond. I've written to Iolo several times by email but like other users, have not received a response in several weeks. Technical support is a nothing more than phone menu of prerecorded messages. In my case, I ended up uninstalling version 7 and reinstalling version 6 on my desktop, which while it doesn't look as good it is much more stable and reliable. While you can uninstall the main program, the anti-virus software, made by Authentium.com, is way too difficult to remove. Even after calling Authentium's technical support, and being referred to article 2275 in the support section (Ask a Question) of their website, I still could not completely remove it from computer. Deleting all references to the anti-virus software in the Windows' registry didn't work either (Iolo's info posted on their website is hardly adequate). I am keeping version 7 on a laptop, with another company's firewall, to see if Iolo fixes any of the above problems in future updates. Until Iolo fixes the above problems, I don't recommend this product. (Dr. Simeon Hein is the author of OPENING MINDS and PLANETARY INTELLIGENCE.)
