Good Morning,
I have read much usefull info on this forum about overclocking. There is something I would like to know. What type of utilities do we all use to keep our souped up rigs running smooth. I mean like anit virus, spyware, defrag, win xp tweekers, I have had a sweet tooth for utilities for many years now and there are allwys new ones that do a good job. I started out with PCTOOLS, Norton and so on.
It seems that we have to spend much time just making sure everything is in order to keep things running. Right now on my buy list is PCchillen internet suit, System mechanic 5, Acronic True Image. So I would just like to hear from everyone as to what you use.
Thanks Mike

You can start by throwing most of what you now use away and buying "FIXIT UTILITIES 5".
It does everything. I even use it's virus protection and find it works as well as any and I've tried them all. I'm a utilities nut myself and this is the very first app I install on a new rig. I think it sells for $29.95.
SPYBOT SEARCH & DESTROY and SPYWARE BLASTER...great trojan/spyware tools.
XOFTSPY...another great trojan/spyware tool...I run all 3 on every rig I have.
EXECUTIVE SOFTWARE DISKEEPER ...absolute best defrag software available..version 9 is out now.

There are so many more but I'll stop here for now. I'm sure other have lots to add. :D
