Avanquest Provides the Ultimate Windows PC Tune-up and Repair Software with the New Fix-It Utilities 9 Professional

) November 11, 2008 -- Continuing its tradition of providing world-class, comprehensive suites of PC tune-up and repair software, Avanquest Software today released its newest version of Fix-It Utilities. Fix-It Utilities 9 Professional is the premier PC tune-up program with a complete set of optimization and repair tools.

"This new version of Fix-It Utilities makes PC repair and maintenance a breeze, with powerful tools and one-step features to simplify common tasks," says Ryan Smith, director of product marketing for Avanquest. "Fix-It Utilities is the ideal program to speed up Windows performance and keep computers running in their best condition."

Improves Windows PC Performance:
Fix-It Utilities 9 Professional improves the performance of Windows computers by finding and preventing common problems before they occur. The new software will run more than 100 tests to find and repair Windows problems and improve PC performance.

Fix-It Utilities' new Windows Optimizer prevents viruses and spyware and addresses Windows registry vulnerabilities that slow PCs. Fix-It Utilities also adds a Memory Optimizer tool that improves how Windows uses memory to increase system performance.

In addition to optimizing system performance, the software's new Internet Speed Optimizer enhances Internet surfing. This easy-to-use tool enables users to customize network settings to improve the speeds of Internet browsers and downloads by up to 80 percent.

Enhances Windows Vista:
Fix-It Utilities 9 Professional includes easy-to-use wizards to fix, clean, optimize and protect computer systems. The new version enables the average PC user to perform comprehensive system tune-ups without any technical knowledge. Fix-It Utilities 9 Professional creates automatic scheduled tune-ups to ensure the PC is running like new.

The software also includes new diagnostic tests specifically for computers running Windows Vista. Fix-It Utilities provides capabilities to test all system hardware, such as hard drives and network cards on Windows Vista computers.

Prevents System Failures:
Fix-It Utilities' Active Intelligence feature, which regularly monitors PC activity to prevent failures, has been significantly enhanced. Active Intelligence reduces Windows start-up times by 25 percent and improves read-write performance by 20 percent. Fix-It Utilities maintains PC performance by sending alerts when any of the following occur:

  • Hard drive is fragmented 10 percent or more
  • PC has 75 or more registry errors
  • System has 250 or more unnecessary temporary files
  • Unnecessary or malicious startup items are installed
  • Hard drive has 10 percent or less of free disk space

Fix-It Utilities 9 Professional also adds a Recover Lost Data tool to find deleted e-mail messages and files, creating another back-up plan for important information. Fix-It Utilities' Windows Rescue CD provides the ultimate safeguard as it restores the PC to its original state, if the computer crashes.

Secures PCs:
Avanquest's Fix-It Utilities 9 Professional includes a more powerful security suite with the addition of Sunbelt's new VIPRE™ malware engine. The software removes existing viruses, malware and spyware and prevents future infections by monitoring the computer for any malicious behavior.

Fix-It Utilities' File Shredder, which meets the U.S. Department of Defense security cleaning standards, now offers an up to 35-pass shredding capability, ensuring a higher level of security when deleting personal data.

Leading PC Utility Software:
Fix-It Utilities has been recognized by trusted technology review sites such as TopTenREVIEWS.com and TuCows.com with a 5 out of 5 rating. Fix-It Utilities is the #1 selling PC tune-up software in the United States, ranked by NPD Group, a leading global provider of consumer and retail market research.
