Hi, I've tryed a lot of windows optimizers like HS WinPerfect, WinoptimizerXp, Hare, anti crash, mindsoft utilities, ontrack utilities, WinXp Manger, PC boost, PC medic, ASMW PC Optimizer Pro, magic utilities, and much more. But the first time I executed TuneUp utilities 2004 ( http://www.tune-up.com/ )

I got a big good surprice. It makes almost everything and it's only $39.99. Just take a look and give some opinions and wich one do you like the best

Their web site has zero press, zero partners, yet they speak of how they are one of Europe's top producers of utility software despite me never having heard of them. Not saying it's good, bad or otherwise but I'm always wary of anyone who's "company" page reads like that.

No offense but those .gifs mean nothing. They certainly do not mitigate the fact that they state 300,000 units sold constitutes one of the top selling utilities in Germany, which is of course a ridiculous assertion. I'm not judging the company nor the product one way or the other, just the web site, and basically it's nothing to write home about, especially for one of Europe's most successful utility manufacturers. That web site would take me one single day to build from scratch, including content, seems a bit odd for such a huge company.

Besides, I wonder why their support page only gives support for Tune-up 2003? It's almost 2005, and their current version is 2004... This indicates a severe lack of interest on their part to provide support for their products. No forum, no FAQ, just an automated support module for their legacy product only. To me that saps all confidence in the product personally, I can't afford to buy unsupported software...
