I'll probably pass on this one. After looking at the product's site I noted that there are no professional reviews, they boast the cnet Top Rated award yet it's never been awarded that and it's rated 1 out of 5 stars. cnet didn't even review it.

They have the Softpedia Spyware-Free pic (which just means they scanned the file) and it's rated 1 start of 5 there too.

The 3rd pic is a download3000.com spyware-free certification but that site is well known for distributing malware:

My advice to Smashing Defrag is to be honest and if you are proud of your product, get a reputable site to review it.

I am very happy with Auslogics Disk Defrag which is free. O&O Defrag now has a Free Edition, however, I would love to see O&O Defrag 14 Pro Disk Defrag here someday.

No way I'm even considering installing this. the intro phrasing above suggests caution- a visit to the homepage link (Copyright © 2009 Defrag-Defragmenter.com- but no program history) and support [How to disable UAC (user account control)?] certainly shows nothing JkDefrag + JkDefragGUI or MyDefrag + MyDefragGUI [http://www.kessels.com/Jkdefrag/ and http://www.mydefrag.net/] can't do free.

with more information and track record.

The blog finished off any doubts. (What's "DeFragging Your Tough Dr")

Wow I'm impressed, boosting about a great perfomance and it crashed at first operation. I've already removed it from my system.

Their website is not really a web site. It is a SEO (search engine optimization) magnet. I have never seen one word used so many times in one page (defrag). Even though they have free email support for Try-persons (from their site ;D) I am still not going for this one. They are trying too hard if they actually have a decent product.

I love how their website claims a 5-star Top-Rated CNet Award, but CNet doesn't even have a review of the program. The one review that it did have from a user and it was for only 1-star. Hmm...

Then they charge $29.95 for this? I feel sorry for anybody that actually paid for it. Well, no I don't, anybody stupid enough to buy this deserves what they get. I wouldn't d/l this even tho it's for free today. If I'm going to spend almost thirty dollars for something, it's going to be for something that's actually worth every penny. Sorry, but there's much better programs out there that can do a much better job, and they do it for free.

If the software programers are listening to the advice given on this site, they need to take it and use it to churn out a program that's actually worth what they're wanting to charge for it.
