Default System Mechanic ... not in my CPU

I posted a story that System Mechanic was the greatest thing since sliced
bread. How it was the best $50 I ever spent...... Well I take that back, while
it did indeed increase my FPS from avg 11 to avg 30, and totally eliminated my crash to desktop issue.
It was just too posessive for me, on the plus side in 2 days, it learned the
forums I frequent, and left my sign-ins alone... all by itself BUT I normaly
leave the power on and let the unit hibernate the night away. At 2am I get
awakened by a noise, turns out System Mechanic was running a scan and
I never told it too. The icing on the cake came a few days later. At one of
my normal forums, I could no long open some of the threads, without CDT. Tried re-boot No help, Posted the problem then I would CDT on That One.

To make a long story short, I deleted System Mechanic then ran a search for all
files where System Mechanic is mentioned, Got 37 and Deleted them !
Now everything works, I avg 28 FPS

They offer a FREE TRY IT EDITION which I will use again, BUT I'm not
gonna leave it alone .... Mess-up my CPU once,shame on you
TWICE, Shame on ME
