Strengths: Don't know!
Weaknesses: doesn't tell you what your looking for, or what to be aware of. Really i can't figure out what i should delete.
Overall Evaluation: looks like it detects alot of rootkeys but i have to think some are good assuming that my anti virus program and othe dedicated programs are on this computer are to help me not to hurt me, would be nice what to look for, or something that would throw up a red flag or something.
