* Anti-Virus: To manage the Anti-virus settings.
* User Preferences: To administrate XPSecurity by password, change software skin, save/load historic settings, restore default setting.

This is a nifty little program that has grown on me considerably. It doesn't introduce new security measures as much as it puts most of the standard settings options all in one place for you, allowing you to more easily control what you have more easily. It also allows you to set software policies much more easily (blacklist certain programs, or stop all executions except for what you specify.)

If you customize Windows/IE/OE settings to enhance security, or want to, this will make that job a lot easier. This program is especially good for muliple user setups.

Nice product that I look forward to see growing.
