well for one.....you could maybe tell ppl
who may not be familiar with system mechanic what exactly you want
save em the trouble of having to search
heres what i found on system mechanic:
http://www.iolo.com/sm/

now personally, i dont really buy into these "all in one" apps
for AV, i use norton
for disk maintenance,(defragging and such), diskeeper pro is reputed as very good
(although windows does have a disc defragment tool)
for popups, admuncher
for the reg, either jv16 powertools or there are a lots of good free reg cleaners
(regseeker is very good and free)
for spyware, you cant get any better than spybot + spywareblaster
for a firewall, again, none of these "all in ones" stand up to sygate or zonealarm
file recovery, try googling for "restoration" good and free
or you can hunt down a copy of easy recovery pro
