USB PC Lock Pro

USB PC Lock Pro is a simple lockdown software program designed specifically for helping you make use of USB sticks in order to block your computer. With the aid of a simple pendrive you can make sure unauthorized users cannot access your private information while you are away from your PC.

User interface

The program doesn’t excel in the visual department as it is characterized by a plain design with only a few configuration settings that are quite easy to tweak.

Blocking features

The idea behind this lockdown program is pretty simple: you only need a USB flash drive plugged in, and the utility disables several options, such as keyboard access to Windows Live Messenger messages, audio streaming options (the mute mode is activated), and other restrictions as well. Additionally, you may enable the fading effect for the audio settings.
As soon as you connect a USB flash drive to your computer, the program reveals information about the key fob ID, presence and security status. When you finish with setting up the entire process, the tool runs quietly in the system tray without affecting your work.

Performance

The locking process can be carried out with minimal effort but it is not actually very effective. If you unplug the USB from the computer, you get access to your sensitive information, so unauthorized users may easily steal data.

Bottom line

All in all, USB PC Lock Pro offers a simple and convenient software solution for helping you lock your system. However, you should take into consideration that the security options may be easily bypassed.
