  Pros

  Very simply to use, mouse click enable/disable feature. While inserting a USb stick from friend it attempted to write a virus which XenCare protected immediatedly. I had other anti-virus installed but didn't respond. Like logging feature.

  Cons

  Sometimes it caught that McAfee is trying to modify its own binary files, didn't harm though not sure why McAfee was doing that. Not sure if Softlock should have ignored it.

  Summary

  This is a very nice easy to use tool. You can be creative to use it because it provides additional protection. When going outside your known boundary (unknown internet side), inserting a USB from your friend, running some unknown program, reading email from stranger always use the tool to guard your system. This can be exceptional complement to whatever protection software you have installed. This tools also proves how helpless anti-virus application can be is an application is smarter than AV. When softlock lock the system Av products can't delete a virus it has detected. So detection can go use less if it can't act on it and virus can lock the system as well and go undetected.
