This piece of crap messes up my speakers and now they are not working! They claimed I had speaker software, well 1. They said the wrong manufacturer of the speakers 2. I do not even have speaker software! I do not need it. This is scare ware and is fake.

Your issue may have been related to an audio driver that was updated. Driver changes like this can be rolled back and previoius system settings restored from within the application. In addtion, the PC Matic interface clearly offers an option to opt out of driver updates. If you would like to provide more detailed information regarding your specific issue - we would be happy to investigate.

One of those bad ads. They want you to remove perfectly fine things, such as the Bing Toolbar. REALLY!!! THE BING TOOLBAR!?!?!? I think these guys are really phishing us for money, and they are not even a real AV!

PC Matic correctly identifies the Bing toolbar as a 'service'. PC Matic users receive the following information: Services are pieces of software that run in the background either at system start or on demand. Lots of services are set to start when the system boots which is not always necessary and can significantly slow down boot times. Any security threats identified by PC Matic are based on the well respected Vipre definitions.
I was very satisfied with this site. It made my computer faster and did everything they said that it would do

SUPER useful and easy to use software. Have used it for years and it flawlessly keeps my pc running fast and smooth. Love the auto-fix AND the fact that I dont have to search for drivers all over the web. No guess work involved. Do not hesitate to try and USE this product.

I have used pcmatic for several years & have always been satisfied with it. It has updated drivers, cleaned up the clutter, defraged my drive & all the other things it says it will do. I just renewed my subscription last week. And I have never had a virus or malwarethey had to remove, so they didn't put one on my computer to remove it!!

I have not had one single problem with this product. I ran the free scan that they said you could run and they did not tell me that I have a virus like some of the other posts I have read, in fact it told me that my computer is free of viruses and the only problems it found on my computer were various things that could be cleaned up to make it run faster. I ran the program on two different computers and one of my computers I knew had a virus but I wanted to see what happened, the product did show the virus and instead of paying over $200 at GeekSquad to get it fixed I used PCMatic to fix it for about $50 and both of my computers run like they did when I first got them and the laptop that had the virus is over 5 years old. I also ran it on my mom's computer, which we know had severe problems, it was running VERY bad and she didn't want to spend the money to fix it because she couldn't afford it, so since I am able to use it on 5 different computers I did it on hers and now her computer runs like it's brand new too!! So I'm VERY happy with the product that I have used and I would recommend it to my friends and family.

I wanted to see what the Antivirus industry says about PC Matic. After uploading to Virus Total, here are the results. I did not install this program on my computer and cannot judge its behavior. File name: pcmatic-setup-1067.exe SHA256: e0d8e01dca9019450d53897c9c157cc0062d5faefcc813753332169fa2a94e72 Detection ratio: 0 / 42 Analysis date: ***** 20:35:58 UTC This means 42 of the best Antivirus software vendors recognize the PC Matic Installer as NOT malicious. Looking at what the PC Matic website claims, I can find free programs online that can do just about everything PC Matic can. This program itself is not malicious; most users may find PC Matic is not worth the cost because of free alternatives available.

Another info-commercial providing virus scans and reporting false threats. This is getting old!!! And for those who rated it good, it is obvious you are in-active users with very little or no ratings. Try again... Please stop stealing peoples money!!!

This site appears in my firewall blocked-attempts list, making unsolicited attempts to access my PC. And no, I haven't visited their site, nor have I seen any of their advertisements in the web pages of the sites I visit. It's a suspect site and I downrate it accordingly. The IP address is 64.29.201.21, which traces back (in some searches) to ***** : interesting that the firewall identifies it as pcmatic.com
