PC Question. Is RegCure legit? It's offered by PCPerformanceTools.com?
I've had a screen constantly coming on that appears to be a legit windows alert, but by following the links to a free scan that says you have various problems, then you are led to a screen that asks for $39.00 to register and fix the problems. I have Norton and Adware, but these warnings keep popping up. The screen either says windows has found a serious error & has to shut down, or that you have serious problems and need to scan and find them.

RegCure is not legit; it is a rogue product that finds problems and then asks you to pay to fix them; Rogue Remover may be able to detect it and get rid of it free here http://www.snapfiles.com/get/rogueremover.html
CCleaner can scan your registry for problems - it's free and safe http://www.ccleaner.com/
