Overview

The setup package generally installs about 11 files and is usually about 2.52 MB (2,647,428 bytes). Relative to the overall usage of users who have this installed on their PCs, most are running Windows 7 (SP1) and Windows 7. While about 16% of users of USB Disk Security come from India, it is also popular in the United States and IQ.
