Many of us use this valuable tool to check hard disc health. Beware, it comes bundled with a nasty piece of malware called "Conduit Search", even when Crystal Disc Info is downloaded from the author's website. Conduit Search will hijack your browser homepage and your search engine. I also suspect it is a portal for more serious threats like trojans. It is very difficult to get rid of. Just removing it from Add/Remove programs will not do it.
Make sure during the installation of Crystal Disc Info that you uncheck the option to install Conduit Search and realize that choice may be presented to you more than once and in more than one way. Pay close attention to each successive screen during the install process.
