Well, after looking on the website, nRoute does not list vista under
requirements but will run after the install. It will not run using the
shortcut. However, it will run in safe mode using the shortcut.
Another example is CyberLink PowerDirector. I was looking at the "Try
Free" version and it does list vista in the requirements.
