I can't stand the Windows version. Can anyone recommend a better one?

I used diskkeeper was very good but you have to pay for it.

I think the best software I've tried in this department is O&O Defrag. Slick interface, kick ass performance and kick ass features. It has a mode where it will kick in automatically if it the system is on low load, and it seems pretty intelligent about it.

Nice thread. I was actually looking for a decent free one myself.

While on the subject of decent little apps, anyone have any leads on nice, FREE utilities to tune up a PC? Maybe give the registry a good cleaning to help start-up lag or something?

I've been using this last six months, the latest version of this is awesome and best part it costs nothing. |

I will have to try it since MyDefrag has gotten all DIY. Seems to work fine but I'm just a simple unfrozen caveman AIX specialist, all of your files needing to be contiguous frightens and confuses me. |

JkDefrag. Free.
Another vote for this. Install it, and set your screensaver to JKDefrag - it actually works (unlike so many other automated defragger's I've tried). |
Ending a sentence with a preposition is something up with which I will not put.

Windows 7 Defrag is fantastic if you leave your computer on 24/7/365 like I do.

JkDefrag is now MyDefrag.
I'll check on the Win7 defragger. After years of looking elsewhere for working apps, it's hard to remember that I can probably go back to the MS tools.
Win7 retail is even better than the RC. I think it is sad that this surprises me and must be said, but here we are.
EDIT: For example, AVG 9 lost its damn mind. I was not able to terminate the service or otherwise halt the apparently-full-system scan which I had specifically told it to DO LATER, so I uninstalled that shit and installed MS Security Essentials.
