Brute-Force Hacker!

Linda, you renegade hacker!--Ha!

What I noticed about System Mechanic and other programs, a few yers ago, was that if there is a new Windows upgrade, alot of tech. utilities aren't ready for it.

I tried to spell-it-out to some wanna-be hackers, when I was having to study and learn from real hackers, who knew their stuff.

Alot of that stuff I've forgotten, and there have been may new developments in computer and Internet security, which outdate alot of older tools.

However, some wanna-be hackers and techies just could not be told anything.--They knew it all! So, they would insist that as soon as they got the latest vesion of Windows up and running, that System mechanic would really tweak-it good.

Yeah, right!--Next thing ya know, they'd say over the mic that they'd be back after a reboot, and yeah, a couple of weeks later they usually got back.--$100-350. of shop repairs later!--Ha!

Alot of utilities are such a pain-in-the-butt, I just blow them off. For one thing, I don't have cashflow.

Regardless of what utility or suite of tools it is, I think it's important to wait until their newest updates catch up to Windows' major upgrades.
