 +
 +<code>
 +Personal Software Inspector is a free computer security solution that identifies 
 +vulnerabilities in applications on your private PC. Vulnerable programs can leave 
 +your PC open to attacks, against which your antivirus solution may not be effective. 
 +Simply put, it scans software on your system and identifies programs in need of security 
 +updates to safeguard your PC against cybercriminals. It then supplies your computer with 
 +the necessary software security updates to keep it safe.
