Supported anti-virus besides Trend Micro

I used to use Telus Internet Security (Freedom) with Windows XP, but
realized that it does not work with Vista RC 1 (Build 5600). What are some
free anti-virus software is compatable, besides zonealarm. I just need
anti-virus, as Windows has everything else.

I wish there could be a free Microsoft Anti-virus or something.

I use AVG Free Edition 7.1.407, and have good results. It is available at
http://free.grisoft.com.

and finally there is Trend Micro PC-cillin but it uses lots of cpu time,
especially at startup. The Czechs (AVG & Avast) are better. Personally I
prfere AVG. It is very quick at updating (29 seconds typically). Both are
good. Colin

I'm using PC Cillin, waiting for Kaspersky to release a version that
is truly vista compatible. Hopefully they'll do before PC Cillin
expires.
