Using Issue Tracker
Issue Tracker helps you maintain the security and efficiency of your computer by automatically identifying problems on your computer and helping you to fix them. For example, Issue Tracker will alert you if you have too many startup programs/services (can cause computer slow down); an inefficient registry (can also cause slow down and crashes) or your hard drive contains files that might compromise your privacy. In many cases you will be presented with a simple wizard that will allow you to deal with the issue quickly and easily. If the problem is beyond the scope of Issuer Tracker, you will be offered the opportunity to contact a GeekBuddy representative who will help resolve the issues.

Each issue discovered will be accompanied with a ‘Fix it Now’ button.
