Titan Shield DOES give false positives as to problems with your CPU. It also puts on it warnings language that suggests that it is affiliated with Microsoft. It is a real pain in the backside when you have it. It pops up about every 2 minutes and there is no way to close a window without it redirecting you to their site to buy there spyware.
