It seems that this software is for demagnetizing the processor, not the
monitor. I have never heard of demagnetizing a computer's processor. Seems
a little suspicious to me. [....]My guess is that this software does nothing but lubricate your computer's

Hopefully your guess is correct. Of course, it seems like a lot of trouble to go to just to cackle gleefully at another download. Without an image of your disk(s) pre-installation, it would be hard to tell what "extra functionality" your system now possesses.
You might want to get something to monitor outgoing connections for a while to see if there's anything unexpected going on. If you care.
