The Magnifying Glass Pro utility is a virtual magnifier (virtual lens, screen-zoomer) that enables you to enlarge (magnify) text and graphics as they are displayed on your computer monitor or attached television screen, or projected onto a larger media during a presentation (e.g., using an application such as PowerPoint).
As you pass your mouse cursor over a section of the viewing area, the display is magnified making it instantly more readable and accessible. In addition, you can apply a variety of visual effects and enhancements to that display.

This is unnecessary, as Windows already has such a tool.
A magnifying option in the accessibility tools comes with Windows doesn’t it? I cannot see what this product would offer over what is built into the operating system.
Although Vista has a built-in magnifier, I decided to give this one a try. At the first use, I uninstalled it. When I use it (it does work on Vista, by the way), my screen flickers about 5 times, disables Aero, and shuts off whatever sound which was playing. I had to refresh my media player to get my music back.
A thumbs down. I’m happy with vista magnifier.
