Very nice reference snapshot to see what you have for hardware, software and security updates via Microsoft.
My only problem with Belarc is its 'Security Benchmark Score'. If you go by all what they recommend to beef up your PC's security it would end up being practically useless, IMO. If it's a PC at the FBI or something, then I can see the security concerns. For home users, Belarc is out of their minds.
My 'Security Benchmark Score'?: 1.33 of 10. With a score that low I should end up being hit with viruses, trojans, malware, spyware and any other breach left and right, or so one would think, but I'm not getting any of that and never have. Belarc really needs to change how they look at security for the typical home user.

I understand the basic concept, but this thing hurts my brain.

Does what it says it will, nothing more. I'm not sure where people like Jcookies are getting it advises you to change anything..it merely maps your system. Makes me think they never actually used the program.

Never had issues with it. There are alternatives but Belarc is fine.

Very useful tool. Similar to the old Aida32.

Portable version sure would be nice.

Enormously overrated and overhyped tool.
What Jcookies says is actually correct, some well known Anti-Virus
product will go nuts if you set everything up as this tool advices you."
I do not know where he gets his info as this software does not tell you anything about changing settings. It is just a great piece of software to have. A must really. Gives you all your sys info, licences, as well as all your software. There is nowhere a setting that tells you to change anything.

The best program around for reviewing software in your PC.

Excellent program for reviewing your PC. Obviously Jcookes doesn't have all cookies.

Great program, contrary to what jcooks said, it makes no changes to your system. Dont listen to reviewers like him. jcooks is the same guy that said "Internet TV has never worked decently, and will never work either.", along with many other wasted useless comments. I am watching internet TV right now by the way, I watch hulu and many other offerings. I also subscribe to netflix and their instant viewing programs work VERY decently. Apparently this guy must have dialup or something. Go somewhere else dude.

It found a "sneaky" missing Microsoft update (MS09-035 - KB973544) which Microsoft Update site did not mention. An exceptional tool shoould it be for its sole capacity to analyze present and absent MS security update. It happens to perform much more, really brilliant.

"Wants us to set al kinds of security measures into unsafe settings.
Following Belarc's rules will make EVERY computer behave erratic and programs
crash and loose their settings."
Clearly JCookes has never used the program. Belarc Advisor does not at anytime recommend that you make any changes to your computer/OS ever.
