• Caution! Will erase printers in Control Panel

  JimFalcon069069069May 27, 2013

  Pros

  Easy to use

  Cons

  ERASES any traces of installed printers in Control Panel. Technical live support is clueless and worthless. Their only response was restore Windows! Tech support is clueless on this software and what it does.

• Total P.O.S. - glad I didn't buy it. Version 4.5

  no-spamrzApril 24, 2011

  Pros

  None. Zero. Wasted an hour of my time.

  Cons

  I ran & "cleaned" with Privacy Guardian. Rebooted. Ran CCleaner, Adv. Sys. Care & Privacy Mantra again. Got the same exact results as before Privacy Guardian. NOT ONE %#&@! thing had been deleted, except Firefox's Add-ons and bookmarks.

  Summary

  Either the people who gave this mess a positive review are noobs, or they're getting PAID to write good reviews.

• Finds more junk than Ccleaner!!!!!!!

  colinh25November 19, 2010

  Pros

  very good product, it finds more junk on your hard-drive than Ccleaner!!!!!

  Cons

  none!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  Summary

  it's a very good tool to have on your computer, it found more hidden junk files on my hard drive than Ccleaner, trust me, Ccleaner missed a lot!!!!!<br /><br /><span class='notifyMsg'> Updated </span>on Nov 19, 2010<p/>i feel much more safe with this product, Ccleaner leaves way to many junk files behind.. PG also has a disk bleacher and a file shredder :D<br /><br /><span class='notifyMsg'> Updated </span>on Nov 19, 2010<p/>this program is very fast at cleaning, you can refresh your computer instead of restarting it, it's easy and simple to use.

• Works great!

  Will__SmithAugust 12, 2010

• This product screwed up my browsers pretty bad.

  kakarasa82May 27, 2010

  Pros

  It seemed to remove all "errors" except for 3 with the demo.

  Cons

  It totally screwed up everything on my browsers from the simple yahoo homepage to everything that required flash or any plugin, app, or otherwise (even the ones I WANT to work). I had to spend hours getting things back to where they were.

  Summary

  If you download this it may work for you, but I'd bet it will also really make you angry and wish you hadn't. :(

• A load of trouble

  kusmoMarch 16, 2010

  Pros

  Nothing to like. Would not work.

  Cons

  I'm using XP. When I installed the program, it would not update the list. It also prevented me from browsing the internet. Spent over an hour trying to right the problems.

  Summary

  I restarted the computer but the problems were still there. I tried to remove the program, by first disabling, but to no avail. Restarted the computer and then was able to uninstall via the uninstall file in the peerguardian folder. Could not reconnect to the internet until I reset my modem. Some files are still left in the peerguardian folder after the uninstall.

• Not bad, not bad.

  SecurityRaterJanuary 1, 2010

  Pros

  It clears out tracks pretty quickly. I have liked it not so badly. Features are pretty good, too.

  Cons

  Pretty expensive for such a program.

  Summary

  It's not so bad, after all, PC Tools has enabled about 75% of its features.

• Better ones out there

  dvdburner7674May 27, 2009

  Pros

  There are NONE that I could think of.

  Cons

  This program tends to miss alot, there is all kinds of stuff left on my computer. It cannot be trusted. It also wants to restart or refresh the app everytime which is pretty annoying. I do NOT recommend this product at all.

  Summary

  There are alot better ones out there than this mess, Check around first. I would recommend Privacy Eraser Pro, or East -Tec Eraser.
