FAQs:
Q: Will the Belarc Advisor send my PC profile information up to a web server?

Q: Must any previously installed Belarc Advisor be removed before installing a newer version?
A: No. The installer will automatically remove any previous Belarc Advisor version.
Q: Why don't I see the CIS (Center for Internet Security) benchmark?
A: The CIS has developed security benchmarks for Windows 2000, XP Professional and 2003 versions. There are currently no CIS benchmarks for Vista, XP Home or 95/98/Me versions of Windows.
Q: The Advisor has installed and finished a discovery of my PC's hardware and software, but I do not see any results.
A: Check that Windows is set to open files with the HTML extension in your web browser. To do this, in the Folder Options windows control panel look at the File Types tab. Select the HTML Document file type and check that it opens with your preferred web browser.
If that doesn't work for you, open this file:
c:\Program Files\Belarc\Advisor\System\tmp\(COMPUTERNAME).html
(where COMPUTERNAME is the name of your PC) using the File|Open... menu in your web browser.
