Industry: Software

Press Release Summary: Version 8 automatically tunes your PC during periods of
inactivity, never interfering and requiring almost no RAM. The software\'s registry
optimization system now removes extra space from the registry before final defrag,
boosting performance.

Press Release Body: iolo technologies has released System Mechanic 8 (
http://www.iolo.com/system-mechanic/standard/ ), the latest release of its best
selling PC tuneup utility.

Version 8 introduces ActiveCare 2.0: A patent-pending technology that automatically
tunes a PC while it\'s on but not in use. ActiveCare runs in the background without
creating drag on a system, taking up RAM, or interrupting the user with schedulers
and pop-up messages.

Two other major new features are a registry repair tool that graphically displays
and then removes RAM-hogging bloat and fragmentation that remain when a registry is
cleaned of errors, and DriveSense, which visually reports the data from up to 46
SMART sensors on the hard drive and alerts the user to potential hard drive
problems.

Minor improvements include:

- New navigation within System Mechanic lets you perform most tasks with fewer clicks.
- iolo\'s application library now targets more programs that slow the startup process.
- System Mechanic 8 inherits your Windows Vista theme for an integrated look and feel.
