    Totally useless. It isn't even an alpha.

    My anti virus software identifies a Trojan Horse (PSW.Ldpinch.IJ) embedded in the exe file.

    Given your system may never recover from the changes, the interface makes it unclear whether you actually applied the changes or not. Very dangerous for the novice who looks for the extra bit of performance!!!

    Clear up the gui (radio buttons and a large apply button maybe), add tooltips to each setting and provide a "save state" option for safe recovery.

    Warning!! Believe the disclaimer that the author writes in his README! Do NOT use this program if you do not have a method of restoring your computer from the point where it will not even startup in SAFE mode!! I say that because if you look at all of the stuff that this program does (have to go to the website and go through the forums etc. unfortunately) the above scenario is a possibility, in fact, it is probable. If you DO know what you are doing, then this program is probably not for you as you would be a power user that would want to have more control over their settings than this program gives.

    Suggestion: Make every setting explicitly "click-able" and tool-tip understandable with links to why you turn something off in order to gain performance. Have warnings for particularly scary service shutdowns and reg changes. Basically document document document! Your target audience is apparently NOT the power user so don't expect 'regular' computer users to understand what gun they are pulling the trigger on. Good luck!
