Call me OCD sufferer, but I have periodic urges to reformat (back when I was on Windows) to "cleanse" my system. Ever since getting my MBP start of 2011, I've never reformatted.

I hope not to reformat, because I'm really busy and simply have no time to re-install and re-tweak my system.

So now I have a couple questions 🙂

Firstly I have this MacFUSE preference pane. What is it, and any idea how it got there? Should I remove it?

Second, how do I cleanse my system to get it back to its original, day 1 state? Are there tools that do that? And is it necessary?
