I've spent an hour or 2 each day the last couple off days cleaning up my computer, deleting/uninstalling stuff I don't need etc..

I have a folder in my Program Data(on the C: drive) called SmartSound Software Inc taking up 2.36 GB.
I also have 2 programs installed, SmartSound Common Data and SmartSound Quicktracks 5.

Do I need these? Is it used by another program or?

I appreciate any help I may get.

Thanks.

EDIT:
In case anyone can help with this to, I have a program called Antec CC, which is basically a program to control the fan speed on my water cooling, do I need this program? I have never touched it and I can't see a situation where I need to change the speed on my fans.
If I uninstall it, will my fans stop working for example? Or is it safe to uninstall this?

Thanks for that link, turns out it's used by an editing software I use(Corel VideoStudio) so I guess I need it.

Still need some help on that Antec program though, if anyone can offer any help on that issue.

Hi,
I would tend to leave utilities like this alone,
You may not see a reason to fluctuate the fan speed now but if you ever game you might to cool it down,
It might actually do this automatically via the utility ;)

Video files are very large too so this utility might actually help in the graphics program too if overheating occurs :)
Cheers.
