  Strengths: It identifies Windows patches that are missing or broke. It gives a detailed summary of the hardware and software installed in the system. The detailed list of installed software infrequently identifies malware such as tool bars, Wild Tangent, etc., as well as identifying duplicate software or older versions of software that can or should be deleted, like older versions of Adobe Acrobat.

  Weaknesses: Since Adobe Photoshop Elements version 6 Belarc does not display the license. Manually write that license on a print out for safe keeping

  Overall Evaluation: Installing and running Belarc is one of the first lessons I give my Adult Ed students. Don"t leave home without it.
