Anyone familiar with RemoveIT Pro 2015 Ultra?

It was listed in the daily digest of software from Majorgeeks a couple of days ago.

I downloaded it and scanned my XP Pro machine as it has slowed down to a crawl. After following the instructions in the Malware section, and having the relevant logs declared healthy, I uninstalled infrequently used applications.

I didn't really expect that to make an improvement, and it didn't.

The description by "incode solutions", the seller, sounded as if it might help.

During scanning it coughed up a great number of malware items, taking several hours to complete. "Fixing" them required that I bought the software. I did.

Fixing the alleged problems also took a very long time.

It made no difference whatsoever to the low speed problem and it deleted many of my applications and files.

Has anyone else used it?

 

Yes, the system was given a clean bill of health after running the various programs mentioned in the Malware section.

There are not many applications which run a start up, and none have been added for a long time, and one or two more were removed from start-up during my investigations. The reduction in overall speed happened comparatively recently.

I have tried Black Viper's "safe" recommendations but no difference was observed.

I am in the process of transferring wanted files and software to a new machine.

Once that has been done I think I will be easier if I simply reinstall XP on this machine. It will be useful for off-line work.

 

Thank you both for your interest.

I forgot to mention that the machine recently became slower and slower without any changes having been made. There have been other things on my mind too, so I may have overlooked other things which may or may not have had a bearing on the problem.

But I've had a belly-full of it and I will shortly start from scratch with a reinstallation.
