LifeHacker faked it, acting like it scans your HD for Virus and Errors in
your registry, and it said it found 751 errors in your computer, I monitored
my HD background, and I see nothing, what a BS people are trying to make
money these days.


Never buy anything from this company:

you do realize, of course, that the folks at lifehacker just report on
what they think looks like cool tools and techniques to make life
better, they had no hand in making the tool in question and aren't
hosting it...

not to mention the fact that they aren't perfect and are not above
getting things wrong... if you think there's something wrong there then
why don't you send them your opinion...
