This depends on what kind of "fix" you believe is necessary. Is the computer suddenly running at a snails pace while before it was lightening fast? It could be bogged down with spyware, adware, malware, trojans. viruses etc. If you have no protection for these things you need programs such as Search and Destroy, Adaware, AVG (virus scanner), most of which can be found for free and which work quite well.
Do you add and delete numerous programs? Your registry may be at fault...this one is a tricky one however, some programs that claim to "repair" registries can literally render your computer useless causing you to have to reformat and reload your operating system if things haven't gone well. You MUST know what you are doing when you work with this type of software "fixer"
Is it crashing, failing to boot, booting in only so far, continually freezing etc? Too many situations to make an educated conclusion on this...so I suggest you come back with additional info as to exactly what is happening that makes you require software to "fix" the system.
I'll put a watch on this post and help if I can...

Adaware and Search + Destroy are good free adware killers. I found a program called Winoptimizer that if run without user modification has been safe on my puters and does a good job cleaning up redundant files and registry entries ( avoid the DLL file tool unless you are experienced.)
I still like to pay for my antivirus... you can download updated definitions... (I like Norton System Works with antivirus and system tools... and if you buy it at Staples at the right time with rebates its practically free). Lastly, a good defragmenting usually speeds up your hard drive access times.

Well, Microsoft found out that they couldn't "FIX" any of their own computers, so, starting in 1997, Microsoft has switched Hotmail.com, then MSN.com, then Microsoft.com and now, all Aruba Firewalls, and routers, the Lab 400, and all corporate systems, to GNU/Linux!!!
That is 45,000 computers!
Also, for each GNU/Linux install on a Microsoft server, they got to release a dozen machines, that used to run Microsoft Server, to run GNU.Linux, plus, the two technicians who maintained each dozen Microsoft Servers!
The Shareholders are thrilled! Accounting department was rewarded for the suggestion for the savings of $MILLIONS, Annually! Executives happy that they increased web presence 12 fold!
Now, you should grab the LiveCDrom, boot it in your CD, it loads into a RAM disc, and it logs the current status of your computer, so you can click on the console in the tool bar, and type "DMESG" to scroll through the boot logs!
Comes with 1900 games, programs, tools, applications, puzzles, astronomy suites, scientific programs, network forensics, Office Suites that read/write all MS files back to 1986, and too much more to relate here. Install, if you desire, takes up about 5.8 Gb of space, or can be placed on a second drive, and takes only about 20 - 40 minutes. Yes, can multi-boot with all other systems.
Installed, it runs upto 50X faster, plus opens up all 5500 FREE games, and programs!
See it, and the free help forums, at http://pclinuxos.com
Yeah, there are 310 MORE, FREE, LiveCDroms, at http://livecdlist.com

System Mechanic does a free 14-trial, which has quite a lot of useful features.
I doubt you'll get anything decent on a freeware or shareware license though.
I expect it IS possible to find illegal TORRENTS of things like SYSTEMWORKS, not that I would condone such practices, you understand, denying the big corporates thier fair share of your cash. Heavens, no. That would be very wrong. Theft even.

Fix what? There are tons of tools out there that fit a particular purpose but if you have no idea what is wrong with your computer or the first idea how to go about fixing it then you're out of luck.

i use AVG free. just have a search on google, loads should come up. But its best to buy one from someone like Norton, can't be too sure it works if its free.

Linux.
http://distrowatch.com - any of the top 5 for beginners.
My personal recommendation for someone moving from Windows is Kubuntu.
http://www.kubuntu.org - go to downloads, Edgy Eft, 6.10.
