"Great security, however..."
Version: Shadow Defender (32-bit) 1.1.0.325
Pros
After trying most every variety of security app, this is truly the most secure that you can add to a Windows system. Nothing can penetrate Shadow Mode to get to your system (unless you want it to). Even better protection than ISR products!
Cons
Outside of user-support, there is none to be had from the developer, who has disappeared. The product now appears to be a dead-end and that is really too bad.
Summary
If you are already a registered user, continue to use and love it until it for as long as you can.
If you are not a registered user, I would not buy into what now appears to be a dead-end product. -

"One of the best software to protect your PC!"

Pros
No need to worry about being infected by viruses and malware. No need to worry about other people messing up your Windows settings. Just a reboot restores everything to the way you left it. :-)
Cons
Has to reboot when exiting shadow mode. but its okay... :-/
Summary
With this I don't need to install anti-virus that i have to update on a daily basis and may compromise cpu resources and slow down my laptop. ='P

"The Best Virtualization Software"

"The simplest to use and does what it says on the tin!."
Version: Shadow Defender (32-bit) 1.1.0.320
Pros
Very quick to install. Extremely easy to use. You can exclude your anti virus so it can update and retain the updates. The same applies to any other app such as C Cleaner ect where they update on a regular basis. easier to configure than Sandboxie.
Cons
None that i can think of.
Summary
If you get a virus and it pops up via your anti virus you could block/clean that virus, but in some cases they leave bits behind.If you simply reboot shadow defender it restores the system back to where it was before as if the virus never existed. you are working in a virtual enviroment and can exit shadow mode any time.Far more efficient than anti virus . Also if your system has been cleaned of temporary files and registry ect via C Cleaner or similar and defragged, rebooting will take it back to its lean and fast, uncluttered state.Any software you test which is buggy and affects system will be gone via a simple reboot.This one is a keeper and the confidence it gives is great.
