The Secunia PSI detects installed software and categorises your software as either Insecure, End-of-Life, or Up-To-Date. Effectively enabling you to focus your attention on software installations where more secure versions are available from the vendors.

Katana, it is a continues monitoring program, not a scanner. And when you start it, it gives the current results in a matter of seconds. If that doesn't happen with you than double click on the Secunia icon in the taskbar, that should pop-up the results :bigthumb:

I had 2 insecure programs and 1 end of life :red:

I know it is a continuous scanner, but it would not give any results
it just said

Please wait while first inspection completes

I gave up after six hours

Hey, it's a BETA, so it can have issues. But a New full System Inspection on my main ( fast ) system took place in about 1 minute. So normaly it should be a matter of minutes, not hours ;)
