Strengths: it's free and doesn't appear to contain any viruses.
Weaknesses: It only found 2 keys, for the XP OS and MS Office. My NIS security app informed me it was trying to monitor keystrokes.
Overall Evaluation: Sorry, not recommended, would instead recommend using Belarc Advisor (also free for personal use) which found 25 keys, albeit some of limited usefulness.

Weaknesses: did nothing but find the key for XP Home & Norton - I can find those myself
Overall Evaluation: does not do what it says it will do. I waited and waited but only the keys for XP & Norton showed up and i must have at least 30 programs that required keys to install

Strengths: Easy to use. Found not only MS Product keys, but also found keys for all my Slysoft sofware, and a few other.
Weaknesses: Would be great if it could find some others.
Overall Evaluation: Easy to use, and it works. No viruses in it, regardless of what hotice1027 said. Bit Defender is known for false positives.

Weaknesses:
Overall Evaluation: I used it to get my Win XP key. It did not match the MS XP label on the bottom of my laptop. It was some random number that only resembled the Key Format.

Strengths: Works as stated,
Weaknesses: none at this point
Overall Evaluation: It would have been prudent to let users know that there is the posibility that you may receive a warning from your security software when installing this. I did not get any of the other error messages the other users received.Loaded it, installed it, it worked,its free.Running XP homeSP2.Hey remember this is Windows and we all know how Windows works
