I keep telling EB that good things come in small packages, but she \t\tdoesn’t believe me. Like when I sent her a Baby Ruth candy bar for \t\tChristmas, I packed it up in a small box and shipped it off to her. When \t\tshe called me to thank me — um I mean scold me – she called me a \t\tcheapskate and about 100 expletives which I can’t repeat here. So for \t\ther birthday I’m sending her a box of rubber bands wrapped in a big box \t\tthat my stove came in. I will stuff it full of old newspapers and \t\tStyrofoam peanuts and ship it off UPS. At least she’ll be thrilled to \t\tsee such a huge box. This proves that bad things come in big packages. \t\tAnd if that is true, the converse is true as well.<\/p>\n

Anyway, when she opens that big box, she’ll be really excited until she \t\tgets to the gift at the bottom. After I’ve shipped off that big package, \t\tI’m going to call Verizon and have them change my number and I’m going \t\tto change all my email addresses too. Heck! I’m going to move to Manaus \t\tand live in the Amazon where she can’t track me down. She will be angry. \t\tReally angry.<\/p>\n

What does all this have to do with our freeware pick? You’re probably \t\tthinking “nothing”. But again you’d be wrong. Our freeware pick is one \t\tof the nicest programs we’ve ever reviewed and one of the best programs \t\twe’ve found to speed up your computer’s boot up and shutdown times.<\/p>\n

But it’s not only a program that can speed up your Windows startup and \t\tshutdown times, it’s one of the sharpest system cleaners and disk \t\tdefragmenters we’ve ever stumbled upon. DiskMax digs deep into your \t\tcomputer and removes useless or unnecessary files that other cleanup \t\tprograms only dream about cleaning, like junk left over from Windows \t\tupdates, browser caches from all major browsers (Chrome, IE, Opera, \t\tFirefox, Safari), and many more. It cleans so deeply it’s like pouring a \t\tbottle of Mr. Clean into your computer and letting it sluice through the \t\tinnards until they’re sparkling clean and tidy. Just think of that image \t\tand you’ll get the idea how deeply DiskMax digs into the inner sanctum \t\tof your computer – whisking away all the dirt and grime leftover by \t\tinstalls, Windows updates, browsing, MS Office files, and so many more.<\/p>\n

We do offer one caveat: This program has safe settings and advanced \t\tsettings. When it warns you to read the help files before proceeding \t\tthat’s what you need to do. If you don’t want to read the help files, \t\tthen don’t mess with the stuff that says “Make sure you’ve read the help \t\tfiles before proceeding…” OK?<\/span><\/p>\n

The gentleman who created DiskMax is a student, and he’s giving this \t\tprogram away. He could easily sell it for $19.95 or $29.95 because it is \t\tworth that much. So a word to the wise – altruism only lasts so long. We \t\tcannot guarantee it will be free in month, let alone a year. So if you \t\twant one of the best freeware programs we’ve ever reviewed, you’ll want \t\tto download this one right away.<\/p>\n

Here’s the developer’s description of DiskMax:<\/p>\n

“Do you know why your computer no longer feels as fast as it did when you \t\tfirst got it? That is because of the accumulation of junk files and \t\tother data on your system coupled with inefficient layout of important \t\tfiles.<\/p>\n

DiskMax is a powerful disk cleanup and Windows performance optimization \t\tapplication. Download and run it just once – the difference will be \t\tinstantly noticeable. Your system will be peppier, applications will \t\tlaunch faster, files will open quicker, games will run better, and you \t\twill be much happier for it. Running DiskMax from time to time is \t\trecommended to keep your system in shape.<\/p>\n

Even if you are an advanced user, DiskMax will be useful to you since it \t\tautomates all the tasks required to keep your system clean and fast, \t\tleaving you to enjoy the whole new experience…<\/p>\n
