[Need Info] Running Tuneup Utilities 2010

I downloaded the trail version of Tuneup Utilities 2010. As a novice with it, I ran a scan, then it told me to restart my computer. I did so, and I assume that it tuned my machine up.

I guess my question is whether or not it's worth the $50 bucks to purchase it? If it is, what is the best way to run it? It left 2 icons on my Desktop, one just saying "TuneUp Utilities," and the other saying TuneUp Utilities 1-Click Maintenance. Thanks.

EDIT: After looking the trial version over more carefully, I've figured some things out. I have the RR 10/1 Tier (but it seems to be 15/2). When you set your profile, you have to choose over 6MB or over 16MB download. I chose the 6MB. Attached is what TuneUp suggested I do. Should I do it? I'm not sure how you can reverse it if it does not work well.

The Tune Up icon is for the program itself.
One click maintenance is for a quick scan.
The internet setting is correct.
I bought it, seems to be doing a great job.

I don't use it however. TTU 2010 gets high marks from the people I trust:

»[Update] TuneUp Utilities 2010 now available

I'd go ahead and let it optimize if it were me.

I did on some of them. You have to read what it wants to do.
If in doubt dont change it. You can always come back later.

Only if you haven't tweaked here in our Broadband Tweaks forum

The internet optimizer is the only tool of any version of TUU I never use
